Abstract
This paper introduces the Threshold Index (hereafter
called TRINDEX) for the Harmful Algal Bloom (HAB)
prediction in lake Torment (Nova Scotia province, Canada).
TRINDEX was suggested via the logarithmic transformation
and then the thresholds of bloom pattern were established by
the discrimination test named the Receiver Operating
Characteristic curve (ROC). The cohort studies will be also
presented to show how accurate the bloom prediction when
using TRINDEX in comparing to the real observations.
