Despite the positive data, recovery remains a bit of a mystery.

“KEY POINTS:
• CSIRO has completed initial testing of a ‘weather service’ for water quality in the Spencer Gulf in South Australia
• The industry’s production in the Spencer Gulf region is worth over $238 million a year
• The data could warn seafood industry of harmful marine events like algal blooms, which can kill fish..."

"The sheltered marine space could actually be crucial to rejuvenating #FishStocks, #shellfish populations, and mammals.

The #NorthSea’s population of gray #seals, for example, has grown steadily in recent years, a comeback aided by the 30 wind parks in the North Sea.

Not only are #cod living in the [wind] park today, but “we found their condition was better than that of those cod outside the park.” "
