The brown tide stretches across the Atlantic Ocean
A continent-long “brown ribbon” has appeared in the Atlantic off Africa — and scientists say it’s not a good sign - Futura-Sciences
Last May, satellites detected 37.5 million tons of pelagic sargassum, a species of brown seaweed, forming an unbroken band from the coast of West Africa to the Gulf of Mexico. This Atlantic Great Sargassum Belt simply did not exist 15 years ago. What was once confined to the Sargasso Sea...
Discover Roatan ExcursionsMassive waves of sargassum seaweed are flooding coastlines—hurting local economies and marine life.
However, communities and scientists are finding solutions, including repurposing sargassum into construction bricks. Sustainable innovation can help protect ocean ecosystems.

USF-led study reveals dramatic decline in some historic sargassum populations
Even as record sargassum reaches Caribbean and Gulf shores, the Sargasso Sea — once a stable stronghold — has seen a sharp drop in healthy mats since 2015. Because sargassum mats support turtles, fish, seabirds and other marine life, a long-term drop in healthy sargassum could reshape food webs and alter the ecological balance across the broader Atlantic region.

Blooms of yellowish-brown seaweed along the Equator are breaking records and defiling beaches, while a centuries-old patch farther north is disappearing.
A study published Thursday in the journal Nature Geoscience finds a big shift in the growth patterns of #sargassum, a type of floating #macroalgae that provides food and shelter for fish, turtles, seabirds and other marine life.
