| 11 new assets from WA Department of Health |
Water temperature data for monitoring shellfish safety from WA Dept. of Health (WADOH) is now on NVS. WADOH deploys sensors seasonally to monitor for high temperatures that increase the risk of growth of Vibrio parahaemolyticus, a bacteria that sickens humans via contaminated shellfish. WADOH, tribes, and shellfish growers are reducing this risk to human health by restricting shellfish harvest when environmental conditions are ideal for Vibrio growth. NANOOS joins the partnership to increase data access.
Visit the NVS Shellfish Growers App for data from the new sensors.
Learn more about Vibrio parahaemolyticus at the WADOH Vibrio information page.
