The major aim of these GlobalHAB guidelines cosponsored by SCOR, IOC UNESCO, PICES and ICES, is to communicate standardized strategies, tools, and protocols to assist researchers studying how climate change drivers may increase or decrease future HAB prevalence in aquatic ecosystems.![]()
![]()
These guidelines represent a first step that will help inform HAB scientists, students, and researchers entering the field, as well as scientists seeking to incorporate HAB studies into existing and developing ocean and freshwater observing systems.

The tsunami is visible in the time series record from CDIP 073, which is the pressure sensor at the end of Scripps Pier. ![]()
![]()
There is a steady tsunami signal since the predicted arrival time. Wave height is around 20 cm above and below expected sea level, with a period around 10 minutes.
County OES-Tsunami Advisory issued by National Tsunami Warning Center for the San Diego Coast. Coastal areas of San Diego could experience strong currents that may be hazardous. Waves expected to start at 7:50 AM PST. Waves of 1 to 3 feet are possible. Please move off the beach and out of the harbors and marinas. Avoid the coastline. See tsunami.gov for info.

Recently, coastal waters around San Diego have been lit up by bioluminescent tides. At night, when the phytoplankton are agitated by waves or other movement in the water, they release a dazzling neon blue glow. Offshore moorings managed by the Southern California Coastal Ocean Observing System have been showing lots of Lingulodinium polyedra (L.poly) in varying levels of concentration. Red tide is due to aggregations of the dinoflagellate L.poly, a species well known for its bioluminescent displays. Each microscopic cell contains some “sunscreen,” giving it a reddish-brown color. On sunny days, the organisms swim toward the surface where they concentrate, resulting in the intensified coloration of the water—and the reason for the term "red tide." These photos were taken last Thursday and believed to be moving north, though not in as high of concentrations as seen in 2020. 🌊 More on red tides here: scripps.ucsd.edu/news/everything-you-wanted-know-about-red-tides ![]()
