Weatherwatch: sea temperature model could guard against shellfish poisoning
1730959253 from GUARDIAN
Low sea-surface temperatures in winter and spring a strong predictor of high toxin levels in shellfish in summer Folk wisdom says you should only eat shellfish during months containing the letter “r”. That is likely to be because food poisoning from shellfish consumption is more likely during the “r-free” summer months – May to August – when the water is warmer and toxins can multiply more easily, and there is a greater likelihood of seafood spoiling in warmer weather. However, a study has shown that not all summers carry the same risk, and monitoring weather conditions in the winter and early spring could provide early warning of when to avoid moules marinière. Researchers developed a model using winter and spring sea-surface temperatures to predict the severity of harmful algal blooms (and hence the risk of toxins entering shellfish) during the subsequent summer months. They tested their model on aquaculture regions on the west coast of Scotland and around Shetland, and showed that low sea-surface temperatures in winter and spring were a strong predictor of high levels of toxins in shellfish in the summer. Previous research has shown that a long period of chilling aids synchronised germination of harmful algal blooms when waters warmed. Continue reading...

Earlier this year, the country granted a one-year licence to Hvalur to kill more than 100 fin whales this hunting season, despite hopes the practice may have been stopped after concerns about cruelty led to a temporary suspension in 2023.

‘You have to disguise your human form’: how sea eagles are being returned to Severn estuary after 150 years
1730548815 from GUARDIAN
Use of bird hand-puppets to rear young among innovative methods unveiled as part of project to restore species Sea eagles were last seen soaring over the shimmering mudflats and brackish tidal waters of the Severn estuary more than 150 years ago. Now wildlife charities have unveiled innovative plans to bring the raptor back to the estuary, which flows into the Bristol Channel between south-west England and south Wales, by 2026. “Sea eagles used to be common in these regions. But they were wiped out through human persecution,” says Sophie-lee Williams, the founder of Eagle Reintroduction Wales, which is leading the project. “We strongly believe we have a moral duty to restore this lost native species to these landscapes.” Continue reading...
