R** T*** Update 9/5/13
Padre Island National Seashore has begun monitoring for K. brev*s. This week their staff found low concentrations from the 0 mile marker to the 45 mile marker but no aerosols or dying fish. A Trichodesmium sp. bloom is occurring along the area's beaches as well. TPWD will collect water samples from the Corpus area to monitor these events.
----
For those in the other post wondering what was in the water - refer to the above info on the trichodesmium bloom. |

Just keep whistling past the graveyard, and "think pure thoughts".
Maybe it will go away on it's own.
Like the time that I "got seduced by a girl who works at the Jack-In-The-Box, named Lucille, who gave me an unpronounceable disease"...  |

| Does anyone have historical data with locations and times/dates of where red T was confirmed? I'm curious again about the king ranch and rain. Seems rain is present when RT occurs. Just looking for some real data. I have weather historical data, just need RT data. |

78.5% of people who get in auto accidents have consumed carrots in the prior week.
Therefore, carrots cause car crashes. 
Your connection between the King Ranch and rain to "crimson moon-derived water movements" is just as likely.
The blooms are initiated offshore, and while they do make it into the bays via Gulf passes, it has never been recorded in Laguna Madre, especially as far south as Baffin or the Land Cut area.
Oh yea, 83.2% of all statistics are made up.  |

| I know for a fact it's been in the Laguna madre. The big kill a few years ago around Christmas was in the Laguna. I saw it first hand. It made its way in through packery, but it was in the Laguna. It's also been confirmed in Mansfield last year or the year before. Still it seems to me rain is a factor. |

It may have made it around the causeway, but it has never been far enough into the laguna to even suggest the King Ranch is at fault. The organism responsible cannot survive at high salinities and the ULM is hypersaline, hence no RT in the Laguna. Like CS said, it starts offshore so there is no connection to the King Ranch.

| I gotcha. This sounds crazy (I like to think a little crazy at times) and outside the box, but do yall think it would be even remotely possible to have a "salt bombing" to stop a red-tide outbreak? Kinda like crop dusting, but with salt since it cant survive hyper-saline water. |

salt is heavy... it'd take every b-52 left to change even a few ppt.
and who's gonna pay for that?
