The record-breaking mass of stinky seaweed that began appearing on Florida’s iconic beaches this spring shrunk in the Gulf of Mexico by 75% last month, according to scientists.
The record-breaking mass of stinky seaweed that began appearing on Florida’s iconic beaches this spring, known as the Great Atlantic Sargassum Seaweed Belt, shrunk in the Gulf of Mexico by 75% last month, according to scientists from the University of South Florida’s Optical Oceanography Lab.
While there isn’t enough evidence to identify one cause, Hu said researchers have been speculating stronger-than-average winds in the Caribbean Sea and the Gulf of Mexico may have either caused the sargassum to dissipate into smaller clumps or sink it to the ocean floor. The bulletin notes there were sharp decreases of sargassum in both the Gulf of Mexico and the western Caribbean Sea. But there was an increase in the Central West Atlantic.
