  1. The worst #Dystopian nightmares I've had (going on 10 or more years) involve #HydrogenSulfide gas everywhere, and squishy #AlgaeBlooms everywhere as well. Even in the forests! I truly hope that it doesn't come true, but it's not looking good, folks...

  6. #Phytoplankton found in #CascoBay can harm aquatic life

    Published September 9, 2026

    "The Maine Department of Marine Resources is monitoring an algal bloom in Casco Bay that it says can be toxic to aquatic life, but not humans.

    "The phytoplankton can turn the water brown and give off an odor, which was detected in Portland Harbor on Sunday, according to a social media post by the city Harbormaster.

    "The first known outbreak of the same bacteria in Casco Bay was in 2017, which led to die-offs of shellfish and lobster.

    "It is not yet clear whether fisheries are at risk during this outbreak; the DMR says it will continue to test and monitor waters, from Portland Harbor to Harpswell."

  11. I wonder if #Gambierdiscus is the cause? They have been testing for #RedTide, but have they been testing for Gambierdiscus?

    Disoriented pelican found on Marco Island may have red tide poisoning, experts say

    By CNN
    May 23, 2024

    A brown #pelican discovered on #MarcoIsland last week is presumed to have red tide poisoning, according to the Conservancy of Southwest Florida.

    "'Typically, we first get the notion that red tide is around when birds are sick,' said Dr. Michael Parsons, of the Water School at Florida Gulf Coast University.

    "The seabird was spotted disoriented on the beach, according to a release. Despite those symptoms, which are common with the #neurotoxic algae, no red tide has been detected in our area, per the Florida Department of Health in Collier County.

    "'We have no signs of red tide around, FWC is aware of this situation and will be monitoring it more closely,' Parsons said."
