| General location information: |
Terrebone Bay, Louisiana, HAB Area code(s): US-17 |
|
| Additional location information: | Cross-shelf research transect SSE of Terrebone Bay, Louisiana. Begins at 29.0567 degrees North 90.5317 degrees West, and ends at 28.7583 degrees North and 90.2345 degrees West | |
| Bloom event dates (yyyy/mm/dd): | ||
| Quarantine levels dates (yyyy/mm/dd): | ||
| Additional date-related information: | The data below represent cell concentrations of HAB species at or above 10^5 cells/liter (with the exception of Dinophysis and Prorocentrum which are reported at or above 10^3, and Alexandrium monilatum and Karenia brevis which are reported when they are detected at any concentration) encountered in routine sampling for the period Jan. - Dec. 2005, and were not associated with a particular bloom event. Cell concentrations were averaged over the three stations in the transect to generate an average concentration for a single sample date. | |
