Historical perspective on Karenia brevis red tide research in the Gulf of Mexico
چکیده انگلیسی

Research on Karenia brevis blooms in the Gulf of Mexico started with the 1946–1947 red tide along the Florida west coast. Early research was on the organism itself, its tolerances and requirements, and the environment in which it lived and grew. Control of blooms, as a management option, was pursued in the 1950s with little success. However, in the 1960s–1970s, new regulation of shellfish growing areas was a public health management success. Research on K. brevis blooms followed funding cycles and was sporadic until the late 1990s when the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) and the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) funded the Ecology and Oceanography of Harmful Algal Blooms (ECOHAB) and NOAA Monitoring and Event Response of Harmful Algal Blooms (MERHAB) programs. These particular funding programs, augmented by State of Florida appropriations, provided the opportunity to study K. brevis blooms on different temporal-spatial scales and consequently advanced the science. This review looks at historical research results in the light of today's advances.
