Harmful algal blooms (HABs), those proliferations of algae that can contaminate seafood with toxins, cause fish or shellfish kills, or alter ecosystems in detrimental ways, have been increasing in global geographic extent, in the frequency and duration of occurrence and in their ecological, human health and economic impacts (Anderson, 1989; GEOHAB, 2001; Landsberg, 2002; Glibert et al., 2005a; Graneli and Turner, 2006; Backer and MeGillicuddy, 2006).
