Abstract
    Red tides caused by monospecific dinoflagellate blooms follow a sequence of development governed by specific biologic and hydrographic events. Life cycles coupled with physical conditioning are primary contributors to initiation of blooms. The development of some red tides can now be followed by satellite.
