dc.descriptionThe NOWPAP region has faced serious problems due to the frequent occurrence of HABs. This is due to increased nutrient inputs from land associated with economic development, and an increase in agricultural production in surrounding countries. Even though the number of HABs has decreased in recent years, due to the establishment of sewage plants and appropriate treatment of discharged water, HABs occur every year in the region. HABs cause damage to aquaculture and fisheries that are highly active in the region and increasing in demand. CEARAC conducted a case study in 2008 to collect information on monitoring structures and HAB occurrence in the NOWPAP member states. CEARAC also developed a common format for sharing information. The latest report shared amongst the NOWPAP member states was the ‘HAB Case Study Report’.en
