AK,
ReplyDeleteI don't want to add to anyone's fear but do you remember a few days ago in L.A. people were complaining of a rotten egg or sulfer smell? News reports blamed dead fish from the Salton Sea.
When volcanos start belching steam,doesn't it smell like sulfer or rotten eggs? You might be on to something. Let's hope it's nothing serious.
That's not unusual in California. Malibu has a spot that is hot near the beach -its constantly steaming. There are many hot springs here, one not too far away from me that produces a very nice alkaline drinking water.
DeleteThe Salton Sea does occasionally have fish die-offs in the summer. Hot water cannot hold as much oxygen as cold water. The Salton Sea is shallow so it heats up fast. I remember years where there were mass fish die offs and it made a bad smell but not a sulfurous one. There is also, as the video explains, a volcanic spot on that lake so the lake is involved. The sulfurous gases can also kill fish.
Maybe you mean Gulf of California ?
ReplyDeleteYes I do mean the Gulf Of California. Sorry, I've done that before, I think because Mexico is so close. Fixed the blog.
DeleteOn the note of fish die offs. When the ocean temp rises it can release pockets of methane in the ocean floor causing die offs also.
ReplyDeleteMethane is odorless to humans. Hydrogen Sulfide everyone smells that rotten egg scent!
