These data represent the most recent eight (8) days of sampling location points for the phytoplankton that causes red tide, Karenia brevis. These data are exported daily at 4:45 PM Eastern Time from the HAB Database, which provides information on the presence and absence of Karenia brevis. |

While every practical step has been taken to provide accurate data, the need for rapid distribution precludes extensive review. Furthermore, the majority of our phytoplankton abundance data have been collected in response to blooms. Environmental data has been provided by varied partners and projects over time and has not undergone extensive review. Sampling efforts and taxa targeted have also varied with funding and projects. Please keep this in mind for data analysis. Please reference the FWC-FWRI HAB Monitoring Database as the source of this data. If you have any questions or should you wish to share this data further, please contact HABData@myfwc.com to facilitate that process. It is requested the contributors to this data set and their respective agencies be acknowledged and cited, should these data be used for other projects. Acknowledgement of the FWC-FWRI (Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission-Fish and Wildlife Research Institute) as the data source would be appreciated in any products developed from these data, and such acknowledgment as is standard for citation and legal practices for data source is expected by users of this data. Please cite the original metadata when using portions of the record to create a similar record of slightly altered data, such as reprojection. If any data are modified or adjusted, please share the edited information with FWC. Users should be aware that comparison with other data sets for the same area from other time periods may be inaccurate due to inconsistencies resulting from changes in mapping conventions, data collection, and computer processes over time. FWC shall not be liable for improper or incorrect use of this data. These data are not legal documents and are not to be used as such. This is not a survey data set and should not be utilized as such. These data are not to be used for navigation. |
