What Are the Methods to Monitor Phytoplankton and Their Impacts?
Several methods are employed to monitor phytoplankton and assess their impacts: 1. Remote Sensing: Satellites and aerial surveys are used to monitor large-scale phytoplankton blooms. 2. Water Sampling: Collecting and analyzing water samples helps identify phytoplankton species and toxin levels. 3. Public Health Data: Epidemiological data on disease outbreaks linked to HAB exposure are crucial for understanding the impact on human health.
