Blooms of Noctiluca sp. appeared to 

 cause annual mass mortalities in Walvis 

 Bay, South West Africa, in December. 

 Mortalities were during periods of mini- 

 mum upwelling and the highest water 

 temperature of the year.

Mass mortality in sea caused by 

 noxiousness of waterbloom [p. 951], 



"Red water occurs in very fertile 

 parts of the sea, often during or after 

 unusually warm weather; it develops in 

 succession after a great production of 

 other organisnns. Products of decay of 

 the latter might be one factor that sets 

 the bloom in motion. Great outbreaks 

 occur particularly in subtropical and 

 tropical regions where the rate of over- 

 turn of organic matter is high; in fer- 

 tile parts of high latitudes red water, at 

 least of catastrophic proportions, does 

 not occur or is very rare. Plenty of 

 sunshine seems another requirennent for 

 red-water outbreaks. The areas where 

 red water occurs are somewhat renni- 

 niscent of polluted waters; the dead fish 

 will worsen the 'pollution'. Here it is 

 important to note that pollution by 

 human action also favors red-water 

 outbreaks. . . . 



"The greatest outbreaks of red water 

 probably occur toward the end of a phyto- 

 plankton season; in areas where upwell- 

 ing occurs during part of the year only, 

 red water usually develops toward the 

 end or directly after the period of up- 

 welling " [p. 953.]

Appreciable amounts of vitamin B12 

 are carried on suspended particles in 

 river water, up to 6.4 micrograms per 

 gram of solids. On particulate matter in 

 sea waters vitamin Bi2 varied from 

 0.0027 to 0.130 microgram per liter.

"On June 27, 1935, ten years ago, the 

 Texas coast was rocked by the nnost 

 sensational event in its history, when 

 millions of pounds of fish were destroyed 

 in the Gulf of Mexico by some xanknown 

 cause. This destruction of fish con- 

 tinued for a period of five weeks or 

 more as evidenced by dead fish which 

 lined the shore for 150 nniles, beginning 

 along the shore of Padre Island, and 

 extending nearly to the area of Free- 

 port. . .for two months prior to the fish 

 tragedy rainfall had been unprecedented.
