Proceedings of the 18th International Seaweed Symposium provides an invaluable
reference to a wide range of fields in applied phycology. Papers cover topics as
diverse as systematics, ecology, commercial applications, carbohydrate chemistry
and applications, harvesting biology, cultivation and more. Contributions from
all parts of the world give the volume exceptional relevance in an increasingly
global scientific and commercial climate. Like its predecessors, this volume
provides a benchmark of progress in all fields of applied seaweed science and
management, and will be referred to for many years to come.<BR><BR><STRONG><FONT

- Springer - 1º edition (December 2006 - due February 2007) -
ISBN-13: 978-3540228929 (~ U$S159) <BR></STRONG>Sometimes known as ‘Red Tides’,
some of the wide variety of phytoplankton species in the World’s oceans produce
toxins which can harm marine life. In certain circumstances, these harmful algae
blooms can even cause illness or death in humans. Shellfish filter feed on
phytoplankton and concentrate their toxins in their bodies and people who eat
them can contract life threatening food poisoning. A number of countries have
monitoring programmes to measure the presence of toxins in algae blooms.
Monitoring of Harmful Algae Blooms is all about the research techniques to
monitor visible algae blooms and through remote sensing, including infrared
techniques, predict them through mathematical modelling. </DIV>
