approaches.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="Pa1" style="margin-bottom:5.0pt"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;color:#57585A">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.
<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="Pa1" style="margin-bottom:5.0pt"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;color:#57585A">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.
