Disruption of cultural and spiritual practices

By greg.williams , 29 May 2025

Disruption of cultural and spiritual practices and loss of community identity and social interactions tied to coastal resource use:

West Coast fishing communities have deep cultural ties to shellfish fisheries. Shellfish are interwoven with community traditions, including holiday rituals, celebrations, and gift-giving. The inability to participate in traditions due to HABs disrupts many of these socio cultural institutions and threatens the identity of communities (Ritzman et al., 2018; Moore et al., 2020).
