The toxic algal bloom red tide is back and dead fish are washing up on the shores of southwest Florida again.
“We've identified currently over 13 different nutrient sources for these blooms and the ones people focus on are always those near shore nutrient inputs, because that's the one they're most aware of,” said Cynthia Heil, director of the Red Tide Institute at the independent, nonprofit marine laboratory Mote Marine.
While Meredith has had to take pains to avoid the algae, he has not seen the same slowdown in business as last year. Other local businesses are staying positive, as well. Scientists know k. brevis is the cause of red tide in Florida, but there is not a lot of consensus on much else. For answers to other questions, Mote Marine is spearheading a National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration-funded $5 million project with other laboratories, universities and the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission that seeks to answer both what exacerbates red tide and what causes blooms to cease.
