Algea blooming in the Baltic Sea, seen from the cockpit:

VAV algae, you ain't seen nothing yet. Wait until sea surface temps reach a critical temperature, and also fail to drop below a critical low temp over winter.

VAV an algal bloom. News story this morning (July 28): a massive, unprecedented algal bloom has developed approximately along the equator in the Atlantic. It starts off the coast of Africa, extends and expands westward to just north of the mouth of the Amazon, then bends northward into the Gulf of Mexico and up the coast of Mexico. Off the coast of So. America and up into the Gulf the bloom expands dramatically. It might be some form of brown algae (Fucus sp) or green leafy "sea lettuce" (= Ulva), the news report wasn't specific but it certainly is more massive than the microscopic algae that turns fish tanks green. Tons of it are washing ashore on some Mexican beaches, making them almost unwalkable much less a place to go swimming (nearshore water appears to be clogged with it). The algal bloom is about 5,000 miles (~8000km) long and contains an estimated 55 million tons (~50 million metric tonnes) of algae.

Causes: 1) unusual upwelling off Africa (brings nutrients to surface, a natural now-and-then phenomenon); 2) large amounts of nutrients washed out of the Amazon River because of deforestation and spread of fertilizer for agriculture (probably the major factor); 3) warmer than normal water in the Gulf of Mexico where the bloom is really expanding (a contributing minor factor).

I've been posting images of this Rose here since 2015, I'm just pleased that another year passes and I've not killed it yet... as it belonged to both my Grandfather and Father before me.

In fact this year is probably it's best showing since it's been in my care.
