Interesting read & a good, fair report on the research findings on the triggers for the algal bloom, after-effects of which are still being felt today (continued absence of birds in my area, fewer giant cuttle fish at the head of the gulf, etc). Critics of the report (slow release, not enough shared data) also cited & given space.

I like this quote from Prof Mike Steer - doesn’t dumb it down & tries to educate: “"One of the challenges in science is that in answering one particular question you generate ten more," he said.

“"There is an incredible complexity of issues that are happened within a marine environment and the complexity within the harmful algal bloom community dynamics is just next level."”

Gorgeous arty photographic capture of the Prof, a mirror shot by Che Chorley, (hope the Prof got a copy for himself) shows we’ve a new photographer to watch, in my opinion. Also, excellent placement, tastefully preceding the mandatory algal-bloom-related shot of a dead fish on the beach.

Congrats to the journalist/s, editor/s, etc who put this together. 👏 Madina Jaffari the only journo credited that I could find. Solid work. 👍Respect. 👍

"A report has been released by the SA government with details on what caused the harmful #algalBloom.

The report concludes there were three major contributing factors that triggered the ideal conditions for the bloom to develop, including floodwater, a coastal upwelling and a marine heatwave."
