Muestreo de las Floraciones Algales Nocivas (FANs) en el Golfo de Nicoya, Puntarenas, Costa Rica

Abstract

Las floraciones algales, conocidas como mareas rojas son cambios en la coloración del agua producidas por la proliferación de microorganismos pigmentados (Reguera 2002). Estos organismos presentan ciclos de crecimiento y decrecimiento numérico regulados por ciertas condiciones físicas y químicas del agua. Las concentraciones pueden llegar a alcanzar magnitudes de 104-106 células/L. El inicio, desarrollo y desaparición de las floraciones algales, dependen de la interacción de una gran cantidad de factores biológicos, bioquímicos, hidrográficos y meteorológicos (Salgado 1994).

Algal blooms, known as red tides, are changes in the color of the water produced by the proliferation of pigmented microorganisms (Reguera 2002). These organisms present cycles of growth and numerical decrease regulated by certain physical and chemical conditions of the water. The concentrations can reach magnitudes of 104-106 cells / L. The onset, development and disappearance of algal blooms depend on the interaction of a large number of biological, biochemical, hydrographic and meteorological factors (Salgado 1994).
