A forecasting system to warn of impending harmful algal blooms has won this year's most beneficial Earth-monitoring service for European citizens. The Harmful Algal Bloom (HAB) Forecast is the first forecast system of its kind and is designed to combine information from in-situ monitoring, satellite data and biological and physical oceanic models. The service provides a weekly alert for fish farmers and regulators in the Atlantic Europe area to warn them of the likelihood of a toxic or harmful event of target species in the following week.
