IOC_IQ-HAB-2023
IOC/OTGA/HAB: Training Course and Identification Qualification in Harmful Marine Microalgae 2023
Since 1993 the IOC has conducted training courses on harmful microalgae. The purpose has been to improve the taxonomic and identification skills of the participants for research purposes and for practical monitoring of harmful algal blooms.
From 2006 the IOC training in HAB identification has been offered within a new framework which gives accreditation. The present course includes now a practical exam at the end of the course with an IOC Certificate of Proficiency in Identification of Harmful Algae issued to participants who pass the exam. We know by experience that many of the more than 500 trainees we have had over the years have wished the courses to give accreditation, and in some countries, the IOC courses have become a reference for laboratories to be approved for carrying out regulatory monitoring for harmful microalgae.
The IOC Science and Communication Centre on Harmful Algae, University of Copenhagen, Denmark is organizing the course.

abordar, con distintos enfoques, el estudio de diversos grupos de
microorganismos que viven en la columna de agua o en dependencia de un
sustrato, las condiciones biogeoquímicas asociadas, incluyendo
contaminación por nano- y microplásticos. Se tratarán los pros y cons de
los métodos de colecta, filtración y fraccionamiento de las muestras
con distintos objetivos, las fuentes de error y el equipamiento
requerido para efectuar mediciones, entre otros aspectos.

MicTechPhyto_2023
Culturing and microscopy techniques for the analysis of phytoplankton diversity 2023
Phytoplankton comprises a range of very different organism from tiny and almost featureless picoplankton taxa to large diatoms and dinoflagellates nearing 1 mm in diameter. They essentially form the base of the food web and therefore a detailed knowledge of this diverse group of organisms is vital for developing an understanding of marine communities and their interactions with their environment and with each other. Unfortunately, the diversity of methods available for the quantitative and qualitative analysis is almost as diverse as the phytoplankton itself. This course will take you through the most important methodologies for quantitative and qualitative (non-molecular) biodiversity assessments of phytoplankton.

Ocean Colour Remote Sensing - Data, Processing and Analysis 2023
Ocean colour analysis is a proven tool for determining the health of
ocean using oceanic biological activity through optical means. Phytoplankton
pigment, chlorophyll, are indicators of equilibrium of CO2
concentration between atmosphere and ocean. The oceanic colour changes due to chlorophyll
a provides the level of primary productivity whereas the colour change due to
CDOM can be attributed to the level of pollution and higher particulate matter.
The ability of optical sensors to map the spatial and temporal patterns of
ocean colour over regional and global scales has provided important insights
into the fundamental bio-optical properties and bio-physical processes
occurring in the aquatic media. Chlorophyll, SST and PAR can be operationally
scaled up to estimate primary production and estimate the fish stocks. This
training focuses on the basics of marine optics, ocean colour remote sensing,
and its applications such as mapping primary productivity, phytoplankton
classes and algal blooms.
