佛罗里达海岸在2018年夏天经历了一次赤潮，这一事件使海水变成红褐色，导致大量鱼类和数百只海龟和海牛死亡。人们也因为呼吸海洋的空气而生病。这次红潮是由称为短凯伦藻的微小但有毒的藻类微生物的过度生长引起的。佛罗里达每年都有赤潮，但这是10多年来最大的一次。人们认为，最近的飓风和潮湿天气导致营养物质，主要是来自陆地上使用的肥料，被冲入海洋，造成污染，助长了这些不需要的藻类的快速生长。一旦开始开花，就没有什么可以阻止它的生长。但是，我们可以采取行动减少营养污染。要使我们的沃茨干净和安全，还有许多工作要做。
The coast of Florida experienced a red tide during summer 2018, an event that turned the sea reddish-brown and caused tons of fish and hundreds of turtles and manatees to die. People also got sick from breathing the sea air. The red tide was caused by the overgrowth of tiny— but toxic—algae, microscopic organisms called Karenia brevis. Florida has red tides every year, but this was the largest event in more than 10 years. It is thought that recent hurricanes and wet weather resulted in nutrients, mostly from fertilizer used on land, to be washed into the sea, causing pollution that fed the rapid growth of these unwanted algae. Once the bloom started, there was not much that could be done to stop its growth. We can, however, take actions to reduce nutrient pollution. There is much work to be done to make our waters clean and safe.
