Session ID#: 9575
Session Description:
Oceans and human health are intimately connected. Human activities resulting in pollution, temperature and salinity changes, among others, affect the health of the ocean. Conversely the ocean and Great Lakes affects human health in positive and negative ways. Potential goods and services derived from the ocean include but is not limited to food and the discovery of new medicines and natural products. Negative impacts include, but are not limited to, diseases contracted through various mechanisms: direct contact, food and drinking water ingestion, and air inhalation. Marine microbes, ubiquitous throughout the marine environment, play many varied roles and may affect human health directly or indirectly. Marine microorganisms broadly include microalgae, bacteria, protozoa and viruses. Recent successes in forecasting conditions favorable to the bloom of harmful algae or the presence of Vibrios and other pathogens in our coastal and ocean waters emphasize the importance of the ecological forecasting efforts. This session will explore worldwide advances in the ecological forecasting for marine microbes ranging from harmful algal blooms to pathogens.
