This is a reminder to check the Florida HAB Forecast System, linked above, for up-to-date conditions.
The Karenia brevis bloom along the FL Panhandle has dissipated over the past few weeks. K. brevis was not detected in the majority of samples collected by Florida partners over the past week, with only a few samples containing background concentrations. Satellite imagery was largely obscured by clouds over the past week, but indicates the diatom bloom noted offshore of the Panhandle and Big Bend, FL may also be declining.
Please note: With the dissipation of the K. brevis bloom, we will be moving to monthly e-mail bulletins. You can continue to find up-to-date information on our webpage, linked above.
This bulletin provides forecast updates and reminders of the Karenia brevis harmful algal blooms (HABs) in southwestern Florida. Please find up-to-date analysis, satellite imagery, and forecasts at the Florida HAB Forecast System.
Subscribers will receive notices of changes or improvements to the forecasting system. Subscribers will also be periodically reminded to check the HAB Forecast System, especially when there are major changes in bloom status.
