2023: E6: HARMFUL ALGAL BLOOMS IN THE ARCTIC

  • Summary

  • Guests: Don Anderson, Kathy Lefebvre


    HABs (Harmful Algal Blooms) are the topic of discussion for this episode and the project described here investigates the population dynamics of HAB species in the Arctic. Don Anderson, Senior Scientist at the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution, studies species of toxic algae that are responsible for disrupting human and ecosystem health. Please join us in this episode to learn how HAB’s move through the food web in the Arctic, how they distribute, and how they impact living organisms. Where are the blooms, when do they happen, how long do they last, what kind of exposure occurs to the food web and toxins that are produced from the toxic algae? Tune into this episode to learn about the current HAB’s work in the Arctic and how these complicated questions are answered by academic researchers.
