“Jellyfish.” Stings from
this mis-named ocean species can hurt
or kill, though not all jellyfish are
poisonous. Jellyfish are more aptly
named sea jellies because they are not
fish, but actually invertebrates. They
are related to corals and sea anemones...
Washing cars. Watering lawns. Fertilizing
gardens. Sweeping sidewalks. Every day,
someone in the Santa Monica Bay area
does one of these common chores around
the house. Most of the water used to
do some of these tasks runs down the
driveway and into the gutter ends up
in the storm drains.....
Red
Tides are the result of "blooms"
of microscopic plankton. Favorable conditions
for the formation of a red tide include
nutrient rich waters, ample sunlight,
and reduced vertical mixing of the ocean
water itself......
Kelp, the golden-brown sea plants we
see floating in the ocean and that wash
up on our beaches, are an important
part of the Santa Monica Bay ecosystem.
Kelp beds serve many functions.......
