Red tides pose significant health risks, including respiratory irritation and neurological symptoms caused by airborne brevetoxins released when algal cells break apart. These toxins can also accumulate in shellfish, posing a threat to food safety. Vulnerable populations, such as those with pre-existing respiratory conditions, are particularly at risk. The August study revealed that Hurricane Milton's aftermath led to a rapid increase in Karenia brevis nearshore, driven by wind patterns and nutrient-rich freshwater inputs. Early detection through AI could mitigate these impacts by providing timely warnings to affected communities.
