The green tides caused by the overgrowth of Ulva prolifera in the Yellow Sea of China have been occurring every summer since 2007. The green tide is a major environmental concern that involves the impacts from natural, anthropogenic, physicochemical and algae factors along with the warming of local water.
Ulvaria obscura is a common marine algae, typically identified in algal blooms referred to as "Green Tides". [3] [4] The species is distinct in its ability to produce the neurotransmitter dopamine as a herbivore defense mechanism.
The Charleston Harbor gauge clocked 3.47 feet of inundation, with a tide at 9.23 feet — the fifth-highest value since 1921.
In its latest update on Friday afternoon, the hurricane center said the storm was located about 170 miles (270 kilometers) southeast of Belize City and was moving west at 2 mph (4 kph), with ...

Cyanobacteria (blue-green algae) bloom on Lake Erie (United States) in 2009. These kinds of algae can cause harmful algal bloom. A harmful algal bloom (HAB), or excessive algae growth, sometimes called a red tide in marine environments, is an algal bloom that causes negative impacts to other organisms by production of natural algae-produced toxins, water deoxygenation, mechanical damage to ...
A chart datum is the water level surface serving as origin of depths displayed on a nautical chart and for reporting and predicting tide heights. A chart datum is generally derived from some tidal phase, in which case it is also known as a tidal datum. [1] Common chart datums are lowest astronomical tide (LAT) [1] and mean lower low water (MLLW).
