Town Responds to Red Drift Algae
The Town of Fort Myers Beach released this statement on Tuesday, April 2, 2019:
“Currently, the Town is experiencing an influx of red drift algae.
There are three main reasons for this increase: Extra nutrients in the
water and the warm, sunny atmosphere create perfect growing conditions.
Last year’s red tide events reduced the number of herbivore species of
marine life present in our waters which eat the algae. The combination
of these factors causes unrestrained growth of the algae and the area
quickly becomes inundated, as we are experiencing. “When left on the beach, red drift algae does have its benefits. Many
species of wildlife on our beaches feed on the algae by either directly
eating the algae or by eating the insects and crabs that eat the algae.
This includes several Florida state threatened bird species that live
on the island such as snowy plovers, and least terns. The red drift
algae also helps extend the shoreline naturally by trapping and holding
onto sand that wave action kicks up. Algae is also an excellent
fertilizer species and when trapped in the dune areas will help the dune
vegetation stabilize and grow. FULL ARTICLE
