摘要

Abstract

Harmful algal blooms (HABs) of dinoflagellates pose significant threats to aquaculture

marine ecosystems

and human health. While resting cysts have been well known for their vital roles in initiating HABs of dinoflagellates

mapping results of the cyst abundance and distribution in marine sediments have been also well documented to be a highly valuable predictor

and thus can be used as a basis to assess the risk of HABs. We attempted to establish a framework for the risk assessment of dinoflagellate HABs based mainly on cyst-mapping of marine sediments and a case application of it to the risk assessment of HABs in the Yellow Sea. In the framework

firstly

the targeted marine area subjected to the assessment was determined and gridded into different assessment units according to their geography

administration

and ecological or economic function. Secondly

the dinoflagellate cyst abundance from the surface sediment

HABs records

and the monitoring results of vegetative cells for all or particular species of concern were collected experimentally or by literature search

as three main indicators scored and weighted respectively with different values. The scoring and weighting process was based on scientific reasoning and empirical consideration as detailed in the text. Thirdly

the risk of HABs occurrences for all or any particular species of concern at each site was ranked with five levels according to the calculated risk values. Finally

the final evaluation results were presented with tables

matrix diagrams

and color-coded textual annotations on nautical charts. As a case application

we performed a risk assessment for HABs of target species in the Yellow Sea

which warned high risks of HABs for

Karlodinium

veneficum

Gymnodinium

catenatum

and others. This assessment framework provides a practical and testable tool for all involved stakeholders

and subject to improvement along with the advancement of ecology of HABs.
