Harmful algal blooms (HABs) have become
an important subdiscipline within oceanography. Heightened
attention to this topic as well as significant research advances
reflect the global nature of the problem and the development
of strong national and international programs for HAB
research and management. The planning, communication,
coordination, and capacity-building activities of the
Intergovernmental Oceanographic Commission (IOC) have
been a key factor in this growth. Here, we highlight selected
advances in science and management capacity for HABs and
document the impressive growth of the field in the context
of activities supported directly or indirectly by IOC. As we
look to the future, the field has significant momentum and
stability. Nevertheless, it will require scientific guidance and
coordination going forward. With an appropriate commitment
of resources from member states, the IOC HAB program can
continue to be a major factor in the sustained growth of this
important scientific discipline and its delivery of improved
observation and management systems.
