In the Baltic Sea, toxic algae spread
Two years ago, in the coastal waters of the Baltic Sea, in connection with hot weather, the first centers of flowering of potentially dangerous toxic blue-green microalgae appeared. At the Shirshov Institute of Oceanology, it was then explained that some types of toxins at high concentrations could cause respiratory muscle paralysis and allergies, and also destroy kidney and liver tissue. Flowering of algae is associated with the weather, the wind rose and the flow of water from the Atlantic Ocean.
