1. Aspects of Harmful Algal Blooms (HAB).- 2. Biology and ecology of some harmful algal species (focus on Chantonella-tbd).- 3. Retrieval of algal bloom related quantities from space.- 4. Monitoring algal bloom from space.- 5. Integrated approach for operational and forecasting HAB events.- 6. Outlook.

Monitoring of Harmful Algae Blooms is a timely guide to the research techniques in use to monitor visible algae blooms and through remote sensing, including infrared techniques, predict them through mathematical modeling. Drawing on current and future satellite data, the book presents visible perspectives on a more efficient HAB monitoring system for the future. It also emphasizes practical applications, impacting on marine ecology, national economy, health, food and safety and quality assurance.
