Good day! In line with our institution's study on temperature changes and its associated events, I would like to ask whether we could have a detailed summary of the jellyfish blooms in the whole Philippines which includes: 1. Date of occurrence, 2. Place of occurrence (if possible with coordinates), and 2. Species of jellyfish. We understand that BFAR issues advisories on such and we hope they have the data mentioned above. Thank you very much.
