What different methods and new technologies are used to monitor harmful algae and the toxins that they produce?

Students will learn about how harmful algae threaten human health through the processes of bioaccumulation and biomagnification. In small groups, they will design a harmful algae monitoring program based on mock harmful algae data, and then they will test their monitoring program and discover some of the challenges and limitations of any monitoring plan that attempts to measure variable, natural events.

Results Of Commercial Sea Scallop Survey In The Hudson Canyon South Closed Area, William D. Dupaul, David B. Rudders, Paul J. Rago

Reports

This report presents the results of the commercial survey of the Hudson Canyon Closed Area. The survey was conducted aboard the FN Alice Amanda from June 8-15, 2000. A systematic grid design was utilized with survey stations located approximately 5 nm apart (Figure l ). Survey stations were located both inside and outside the boundaries of the closed area. Additional stations were added along the western, northern ru1d southern boundaries in an attempt to resolve the boundary effects on sea scallop abundance and size distribution. Survey tows were l O minutes in duration at a speed of 4.5-5.0 kts. The …
