If you are looking for a specialized instruction in Phycology, specifically in phytoplankton identification, algal bloom in both marine and freshwater environments, and the ecological dynamics behind it, I can be your guy. I have extensive experience in harmful algal bloom and water quality monitoring by conducting microalgae identification and enumeration in the Philippines and Australia for green algae, cyanobacteria, dinoflagellates, diatoms, desmids, euglenoids, raphidophytes, chrysophytes, among others. I also have knowledge on aquaculture, particularly on rearing algae in culture for natural food production, brackishwater aquaculture operation, climate change mitigation and project management in aquaculture sector.
