Platform to understand effects of the harmful algal bloom holobiont in a changing environment to predict their impact on aquatic ecosystem services

Abstract -

Urgent action is required to create resilient and forward-looking solutions for the early detection and effective management of harmful algal blooms (HABs). These blooms pose a significant threat to society and the environment, necessitating a proactive approach to limit their detrimental socio-ecological consequences by gaining deeper insights into their origins and triggering factors. As our planet experiences global warming, changes in rainfall patterns, and an escalation in nutrient pollution, coupled with the continued growth of the aquaculture industry, the intensification and broader geographic spread of HABs become increasingly likely due to the synergistic effects of all these factors. Although significant efforts have focused [...]
