A picture of one of the beaches of Alexandria ignites the communication sites.. The reason is natural
Pictures circulating on social networking sites during the past hours caused an uproar, as the picture showed the change of color of one of the beaches of the Egyptian governorate of Alexandria to green.
And the vacationers in Miami Beach, east of Alexandria, wondered why it changed the green color instead of the traditional blue.
The Dean of the Faculty of Science at Alexandria University, Amani Ismail, revealed that the change in the color of the waters of Miami Beach to green is caused by a natural phenomenon, the blooming of marine plankton, which is visible to the naked eye.
Yesterday, Saturday, in a telephone interview with the “Evening DMC” program, which is broadcast on the Egyptian satellite channel “DMC”, she pointed out that the wanderings had accumulated in Miami Beach, in particular, without regard to other beaches in Alexandria, due to the lack of wave movement and the high temperature of the weather. Two main factors in its prosperity.
Ismail confirmed that these plants will perish and decompose in the sea as soon as the weather decreases.
