Harmful Algal Blooms: Red Tide vs. Blue-Green Algae
Once again, Florida residents are gearing up for the annual return of red tide, a harmful algal bloom that can wreak havoc on marine life and human health. Red tide occurs when specific types of algae proliferate in the water, creating a “bloom” that can taint the water and release dangerous toxins into the environment. But red tide is not the only toxic algal bloom we need to worry ...
