Red tide in Ai Island, Banda (2015) compressum
❷ Difficulties and Scientific subject needed on Facing the HABs Problem in Indonesia Difficulties on facing the HABs problem in Indonesia ‐ Late response, no early warning system, limited fund to perform monitoring activities of the development of the HABs species in the bay ‐ Lack of laboratory equipment, difficulty in culturing the HABs species, lack of expertise of taxonomists. ‐ No routine shellfish toxicity monitoring activities. Scientific subject necessary to solve the problem ‐ HABs causative species monitoring activities in time frame to specify and predict the HABs occurrence in specific condition ‐ Cysts beds study to map the distribution of bloom initiation area ‐ Culture and shellfish toxicity study to see the development and toxicity of the HABs species WESTPAC Workshop on the Development of a Research Strategy for Harmful Algal Blooms 19‐21 December 2016 Institute of Oceanography, Nha Trang, Vietnam
