Published in 2023 at "PLOS ONE"

DOI: 10.1371/journal.pone.0286029

Abstract: Fecal indicator bacteria (FIB) are monitored at beaches to assess water quality and associated health risk from recreational exposure. However, monitoring is generally conducted infrequently (i.e. weekly or less often), potentially leading to inaccurate assessment… read more here.
