  abstract = {{T}he large-scale proliferation of pelagic {S}argassum in the {T}ropical {A}tlantic from 2011 has been the subject of increasing attention because of its negative consequences on the environment, fishing, and socioeconomic activities when stranding on coastal areas. {T}his recurrent phenomenon presents strong seasonal and year to year variations. {A}nticipating the abundances and stranding on seasonal scale poses important challenges in terms of observations and modeling. {W}e show that skillful seasonal forecast of {S}argassum distribution can be achieved with up to 7 months in advance over the {T}ropical {A}tlantic, by integrating both transport and current knowledge on physiology of {S}argassum. {T}his forecast is designed to help marine stakeholders to develop mitigation and resilience strategies through anticipatory decision-making.},
