Magnified view of period corresponding to tetrodotoxin accumulation in bivalves at selected shellfish representative monitoring sites in 2016

Magnified view of period corresponding to tetrodotoxin (TTX) accumulation in bivalves at selected shellfish representative monitoring sites in 2016. The plot shows satellite-derived daily mean sea-surface temperature (SST) values between May and July 2016 at sites with TTX (red dots) and without TTX (blue dots). The dashed vertical lines represent the onset of TTX accumulation on 21st June and when maximum TTX concentrations were recorded (4th July).
