Chinese scientists also said that this could create a major environmental problem worldwide. Algae grow rapidly in water and can also occur in fresh water. The spread of this algae can spoil the color of the water. It can be yellow, red or bright green, as it is clearly visible in the latest satellite images. He said that phosphates and other fertilizers are getting dissolved on a large scale inside the water, due to which algae and other green plants are getting food. Due to this they are developing.
Plankton are harmful when they eliminate oxygen inside the water, due to which the fish start having difficulty in breathing. Some algae produce biotoxins that can have serious effects on wildlife. This can create areas where organisms cannot survive. This research has been published in the journal Nature, in which 7,60,000 pictures of NASA were used. By the year 2020, the area of this algae was up to 8.6 percent in the sea. In India, this poisonous greenery is visible from the coast of Gujarat to Pakistan in the Arabian Sea. At the same time, this algae is also being seen on the coast of Tamil Nadu and Kerala. Apart from this, this algae is also widespread in the Sea of Japan.
