This toxicity is known to occur worldwide and affects not only livestock, but wildlife, marine life, and humans as well. Blue-green algae tends to grow on the surfaces of farm ponds during the summer season.

Aegean Plate. Located between the Adriatic and the Anatolian plates, the small Aegean plate is also caught between the converging Eurasian and African plates. Its border is defined by a belt of active seismic activity surrounding the plate (Innocenti et al., 2010).his region is also where the active Hellenic margin is located, which joins the Ionian Islands to Western Anatolia (Innocenti et al., 2010). The central part of the plate is characterized by the Plio-Quaternary volcanic arc and the Pindos ophiolites (Innocenti et al., 2010).
