Current Conditions The red tide organism, Karenia brevis, was observed at background concentrations in one sample from Southwest Florida over the past week. Other samples collected statewide did not contain K. brevis. In Southwest Florida over the past week, K. brevis was observed at background concentrations in one sample from Sarasota County. In Northwest Florida [...]
Current Conditions The red tide organism, Karenia brevis, was not observed in samples collected statewide over the past week. We continue to use satellite imagery (USF and NOAA NCCOS) to help track nearshore and offshore conditions. Fish Kills No reports of fish kills suspected to be related to red tide were received over the past [...]
Current Conditions Over the past week, the red tide organism Karenia brevis was detected at background concentrations in one Northwest Florida sample collected offshore. We continue to use satellite imagery (USF and NOAA NCCOS) to help track nearshore and offshore conditions. In Southwest Florida over the past week, K. brevis was not observed. In Northwest [...]

Over the past week, the red tide organism Karenia brevis was detected at background concentrations in two samples from and offshore of Florida’s Gulf Coast. In Southwest Florida over the past week, K. brevis was observed at background concentrations in one sample from offshore of Pinellas County. In Northwest Florida over the past week, K. [...]
Current Conditions Over the past week, the red tide organism, Karenia brevis, was detected in 27 samples collected from Florida’s Gulf Coast. Bloom concentrations (>100,000 cells/liter) were not observed. We continue to use satellite imagery (USF and NOAA NCCOS) to help track nearshore and offshore conditions. In Southwest Florida over the past week, K. brevis [...]
Red Tide remains around us in various spots in our coastal waters and experts predict that as a result of the large amount of stormwater runoff generated by IAN it’s likely to stay with us for some time. What do you know about red tide? Do you know what causes it and what makes the [...]
