Abstract:An intense bloom of Karenia sp. was reported in the Oualidia lagoon, part of Atlantic Moroccan coast. The highest concentrations are 1.04 × 10 7 cells/L, and have been noted at the park station 7. High nutrient concentrations have been observed, and PO 4 was the highest value (av. 396.18 µg/L) recorded at Parc 7. This massive proliferation caused a red tide which extended over 25 km from the Atlantic coast. This event was accompanied by stranding of macroalgae.
