phytoplankton samples from Totten Inlet from May to early September of this
year. We began seeing Akashiwo at low concentrations (40,000 cells/L) on
7/7 and cell counts increased to 460,000 cells/L by 7/21. They remained
at or near this concentration until peaking on 8/18 (684,000 cells/L).
Dissipation seemed to occur around 9/8 (175,000 cells/L) when we collected our
final sample for the season. It appears something triggered the initiation
of another bloom….a sizeable one at that. <o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class=MsoNormal>The dense bloom of marine algae in recent samples from
Totten Inlet is <i>Akashiwo sanguinea</i>. This dinoflagellate was responsible
for bird deaths on the outer Washington coast in late summer/fall 2009 due to
the production of a surfactant like compound. Bird deaths were also attributed
to <i>A. sanguinea</i> in Monterey Bay in 2007. <o:p></o:p></p>

King of Taylor Shellfish reports a very dense bloom of some kind of marine
algae in portions of Totten Inlet presently. If any SoundHAB
recipients are in the area and can sample, please take live or formalin
preserved samples so we can identify the potential culprit. <o:p></o:p></span></p>

several of you have asked about the HAB publication that I just produced with
Tim Tynan and Nicky Haigh about Heterosigma affecting wild fish and salmon, so
I attach it here for your use. This is pertinent to Totten Inlet as the
Kennedy Creek Chum would normally be milling in the area at this time, with
mean run timing of mid November.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
