Résumé : Phaeocystis bloom, following a first diatom bloom, is observed each year in April-May in the French, Dutch and German coastal zones of the North Sea. Evidences are presented that both the duration and the maximum biomass reached by this bloom is increasing since the last 20 years in response to increasing nutrient discharges into the sea. Observations carried out during the "red" 1988 spring in the scope of a joint EEC study are presented. A model is currently being established with the purpose of allowing optimization of preventive actions against coastal eutrophication. the structure of the model is described.
