This scientific poster reports the results from a California State University project that evaluated and confirmed the utility of the common sand crab (Emerita analoga) to monitor the algal toxin domoic acid (DA) in the coastal environment. Emerita and sea mussels (Mytilus sp.), a general sentinel indicator for DA, were collected from natural populations over an 11-month period in Monterey Bay, California, and tested for DA using the HPLC-UV method. The poster includes a description of the study, datasets, and images.
