Scientists have observed the development of a toxic algal bloom off Florida's coast, likely accelerated by the recent hurricanes that struck the state.
Oceanographer Richard Stumpf noted that hurricanes can intensify existing algal blooms, which in Florida has resulted in noticeable red tides and mass fish deaths.
The arrival of red tides follows extreme weather in Florida, raising concerns about marine life, alongside the significant property and environmental destruction from hurricanes.
The impacts of recent hurricanes extend beyond property damage; they disrupt environmental monitoring efforts, which can hinder our response to these ecological challenges.
