In Chapter 28, we will consider further the effects of unintentional fertilization of coastal waters. These include development of hypoxia and blooms of harmful algae. Unfortunately, the size and persistence of coastal hypoxic zones and harmful algal blooms seems to be increasing worldwide. 

Increase in frequency of harmful algal blooms such as Phaeocystis in Baitic Sea. 

Biological Pollutants Harmful algal blooms Stimulation of the growth of algae and bacteria that synthesize biotoxins Biotoxins are generaiiy neurotoxic. 

Harmful algal blooms Proliferation of phytoplankton that have toxic effects on other marine organisms and humans. The harmful effects include, but are not limited to, poisoning from biotoxins and mechanical abrasion. 

Louisiana coast (Dortch and Whitledge, 1992). Harmful algal blooms (HABs) have been linked with decreases in the Si N and Si P ratios (Smayda, 1990 Anderson et al., 2002 Ragueneau et al., 2005a,b), many of the more common bloom species consist of toxic dinoflagellates (Steidinger and Baden, 1984), prymnesiophytes (Lancelot et ah, 1987), and certain diatom species (e.g., Pseudo-nitzchia australis) (Scholln et ah, 2000).
