Question

Are red tides in tropical areas the same as west coast?

Answer 1

Answer:

The term red tide is most often used in the US to refer to Karenia brevis blooms in the eastern Gulf of Mexico, also called the Florida red tide. K. brevis is one of many different species of the genus Karenia found in the world's oceans. Major advances have occurred in the study of dinoflagellates and their genomics.
