Description:Sea surface temperature (SST) in the Northeast Shelf Large Marine Ecosystem were above average during the second half of 2011 continuing the trend of warm conditions found during the first half of the year. There were exceptionally robust spring phytoplankton blooms on the Northeast Shelf; however, the fall bloom was not distinct enough to be measured as an event. Clearly there were multiple regional blooms in the second half of the year, most notably a summer bloom in the Middle Atlantic Bight.
