I feel as if having a lead section and an overview section is a bit redundant. I am working on cleaning them up. Could we combine these for a more cohesive overview? Thoughts? CLMills ( talk) 22:33, 23 November 2018 (UTC) The first lines could be 'A red-tide is a type of algal bloom caused by large concentrations of aquatic microorganisms such as ...'
I believe it may be best to shift the "Red Tide" section up before the discussion on harmful effects. We can then include the genera list under that subheading. CLMills ( talk) 22:37, 23 November 2018 (UTC)
"The Alabama Crimson Tide is a reference to red tide."
I have lived in Alabama all my life, rooting for Alabama football, and I have never heard this. Plus Tuscaloosa is about 250 miles inland, so the phenomenon isn't particularly familiar here.
For what it's worth, red tide plays a major plot role in Clive Cussler's novel Sahara. Don't know if that factoid is wikipedia-able.

I am old-fashoned. I prefer the use of Algae for marine "plants" It seems many are using Protists to cover all organisims which are simple in composition such as algae, bacteria, fungi etc. I don't agree - but some may wish to use Protisra here not plants. Osborne 10:20, 12 June 2007 (UTC)
This entry on Red Tide appears to be incomplete.
Case in point: I went to the beach and started coughing. This has never happened before, so I asked someone there and he stated it was due to the red tide. Local newspapers and other sources online do indicate that algal blooms may in fact cause respiratory symptoms in humans such as wheezing and coughing. I believe this is worth a paragraph on this entry.
Do a Google search on "respiratory problems caused by red tide" to get more info.

There have been ancedotal evidence of a few human deaths caused by red tide in which the doctors were unwilling (on even mentioned political pressure) to list red tide as the cuse of death, instead they listed pnemonia or lung failure. Howver the site which has the evidence is (redtidealert.com) is now defunct. Anyone know how I get that evidence back? texxsmith.com ( talk) 12:32, 12 February 2009 (UTC)
Would others think it is useful to mention references in ancient history or Bible to possible HAB outbreaks in the Bible?
Exo 7:20 And Moses and Aaron did so, just as the LORD commanded. So he lifted up the rod and struck the waters that were in the river, in the sight of Pharaoh and in the sight of his servants. And all the waters that were in the river were turned to blood. Exo 7:21 The fish that were in the river died, the river stank, and the Egyptians could not drink the water of the river. So there was blood throughout all the land of Egypt.

A great example (as seen here 46°37′02″N 53°10′57″W / 46.6173°N 53.1825°W) of a bloom, as it occurs annually around the coast of Newfoundland especially at the southern of the Avalon Peninsula at ecological reserve, Mistaken Point. West of this point is Cape St. Mary's Bird Sanctuary, home to one of the largest Gannet bird sanctuary in the world. -- HJKeats ( talk) 16:33, 25 February 2008 (UTC)

anything about luminous tides which seems to be generally green or yellow in color and actually make waves glow at night? Are they caused by the same microorganisms? As they are not red I'm wondering if there is a special name for them. They seem to be phosphorescent. 4.246.162.32 ( talk) 20:48, 29 January 2013 (UTC)

Ohio University Student Grammar is not great. Could use a lot more detail. It acts as if the red tides in florida are only Karenia Brevis. However that is the most abundant only in the Gulf of Mexico, there are more than one type of red tide species. Maybe link pages to different types of red tide species. This site should be renamed red tides of Florida or Gulf of Mexico. It says "the exact cause of the bloom is not known." However, recent studies have shown that it is nutrient pollution along with factors like wind, salinity and temperatures. Great sources! Ab531114 ( talk) 14:47, 6 March 2018 (UTC) Originally the page had a lot of good information but it seemed to go off topic and talk about algae in freshwater systems which had nothing to do with the red tide. Red tide species are not found in freshwater systems. I also noticed that it specifically talked about Karenia brevis and I almost changed the whole page to a page about karenia brevis but I decided to make a list of common red tide genus on the page to say that there are more than just one type. It also referred to Florida and Texas a large amount which is where the K. brevis species is found so I made it clear that the red tide can be found worldwide. I spent hours editing the page but I am happy with the results.Ab531114 (talk) 11:53, 24 April 2018 (UTC)Alexis Bowden At one point a bot took away hours of work that I had just done and labeled it as vandalism so I decided to be done with the project so that wouldnt happen again.Ab531114 (talk) 11:56, 24 April 2018 (UTC)Alexis Bowden Ab531114 ( talk) 13:41, 24 April 2018 (UTC)Alexis Bowden

A potential merge discussion regarding this article is at the Harmful algal bloom article. IMO even the content of this Red tide article makes it very clear that this is not a distinct topic and a duplication of Harmful algal bloom. But we should require a careful merge to make sure nothing useful gets lost which will require a good amount of work. The consensus seems to be to do a merge. If nothing dramatic otherwise happens in the discussion I plan to start working on a merge sometime next month (in April). The first step would be adding material from this article into the Harmful algal bloom article. North8000 ( talk) 14:42, 18 March 2022 (UTC)
Expanding on my previous post, the careful merge will include, at the other article, strengthening the coverage of the term "Red Tide" here and also adding any good material & sources from this article that are not currently in the other article. Sincerely, North8000 ( talk) 18:05, 1 April 2022 (UTC)
