Short summary
The study integrated empirical Bayesian kriging, ensemble learning, and stacked species distribution modeling to study the distribution of cyanotoxin nodularin and toxin producer Nodularia spumigena. Area distribution of nodularin is determined by salinity, temperature, phosphate, nitrate-to-phosphate ratio, and distance from shore. Predictions show increased nodularin occurrences in the Eastern Gotland Sea, Northern Baltic Proper, southern parts of the Bothnian Sea, and Arkona Basin by 2100.
