Series Information:
Description:
Abstract:
GIS point shapefile of sampling locations for the phytoplankton
that causes red tide, Karenia brevis. Sampling sites dates range from
August 1953 through the latest spatially verified data presently
available. The HAB shapefile is a spatial representation of
information gathered in the HAB Historical Database, which provides
information on the presence and absence of Karenia brevis.
Purpose:
The purpose for creating the HAB shapefile was to spatially
display information for the blooming phytoplankton Karenia brevis in
Florida.
Supplemental Information:
F2384 These data are being used in the formation of the Harmful Algal
Bloom (HAB) Historical Database produced by Florida Marine Research
Institute. --Prior to July 1, 2004, the Fish and Wildlife Research
Institute (FWRI) was known as the Florida Marine Research Institute
(FMRI). The institute name has not been changed in historical data sets
or references to work completed by the Florida Marine Research
Institute. The institute name has been changed in references to ongoing
research, new research, and contact information.--

Access Constraints: None. These data are
public information. Data from this database may be accessed by contacting
the point of contact. Statewide historical red tide sampling data will be
available to the public in the form of an Access database, CD ROM and Web
site.
Use Constraints: This is not a survey
product and should not be used as such. It is requested the contributors
to this data set and their respective agencies be acknowledged and cited,
should these data be used for other projects.

Data Quality Information
Section
Index
Logical Consistency Report:
Attribute Description: Attribute data is quality controlled by a
"proofing" process. A proofing screen is built into the database and after a
record is entered it is reviewed for accuracy when a proofing person looks
over the datasheet and verifies the data entry. The record is then saved in
the tables as proofed and is not changeable in the main data entry screen.
Outliers generated from incorrect latitude or longitude values are
discarded.
Completeness Report:
Attributes from datasheets that are not included in the database are
presence of dead fish, tide information, cloud cover, moon phase, wind
direction and speed, flocculance, water and weather conditions, count
analyst, count analysis date, collecting person, current information, wave
height, etc. These datasheets varied greatly in specificity of information
from the minimum required parameters to detailed cruise and research
studies. Due to this diversity, it was decided to incorporate as many entry
fields as possible for related information from the datasheet. Selection of
the attributes that are included in the database were based on frequency of
the measurement on datasheets, The minimum requirements for generating a
record include a K. brevis count (in cells per liter), the date when the
water sample was collected, and a description of where the water sample was
taken. Collecting agency and sampling depth are also required to generate a
record, but have default values of """"unknown"""" and 0.5 m, respectively.
After July 1, 1999 SEAS agency references became DOACS agency references.
References to K. brevis being present are represented by a cell count of 1
cell per liter. This was done to remove them from a true negative count
analysis.

Methodology Type: Lab
Methodology Description:
Coordinates from the historical HAB database are mapped in ArcGIS
using the xy function. These coordinates are in geographic nad 83. The
data are then projected to Albers nad 83. Attribute data associated with
each record is preserved.
