>To: PHYCOTOXINS@...

>Greetings:
>
>We are writing to ask the worldwide HAB community's help in updating
>a series of global maps of HAB incidences. These maps originated in
>one form at the 1989 HAB Conference in Sweden and have appeared in
>various updated versions in a paper by Gustaaf Hallegraeff as well as
>in several more recent publications.
>
>Some years ago, the U.S. National Office for Marine Biotoxins and
>Harmful Algal Blooms prepared color versions of these maps and
>updated them to the best of our knowledge. Through time, however,
>they have probably become both outdated and inaccurate. Since we are
>receiving an increasing number of requests for these maps from the
>HAB community as well as from journalists, it is important for us to
>make sure the information is correct and up-to-date.
>
>We are asking your help in updating these maps which will then be
>freely available for everyone to use. We have created maps for ASP,
>AZP, CFP, DSP, NSP, PSP, and fishkills, using a red dot to indicate
>confirmed events of a toxic or harmful nature. (Note that this does
>not include the observation of a harmful species in the plankton - we
>are denoting only HAB events.) These maps are available for you to
>view and print out at
>http://www.whoi.edu/redtide/HABdistribution/HABmap.html#World%20HAB%20toxin%20m\
aps
>. Please review your section of the world for each of these maps and
>make deletions and/or additions as appropriate. Please use an X to
>remove a circle and a box to indicate a new area that's affected. If
>you are able to, you can electronically alter the gif image and send
>it to the e-mail address indicated below. Alternatively, please
>printout the appropriate map(s) and make alterations by hand. These
>hard copies can be mailed or FAXed to the address below. Please note
>that each dot covers a fairly large geographic area, so please use
>your best judgment in adding new dots. It would also be useful to
>have some supplementary information about the changes you have made -
>i.e., a reference or personal observation that supports the change.
>
>We will inform you when the updated maps are available and posted on
>the website. These will be downloadable and suitable for Power Point
>presentations. Eventually, high resolution images will be available
>to everyone by request.
>
>We realize that there are no maps for some HAB problems (such as
>cyanobacterial blooms); these will be the subject of future efforts.
>
>Thank you, in advance, for your help with this project.
