“The cause was a “perfect storm” of bad conditions, said Bryan Frazier, the director of the Brazoria County Parks Department. Warm water holds much less oxygen than cold water, he said, and calm seas and cloudy skies in the area had stymied the ways oxygen is usually infused into ocean water. Waves add oxygen to water, and cloudy skies reduce the ability of microscopic organisms to produce oxygen through photosynthesis. When schools of fish are trapped in shallow, warm water, they can start to act erratically as they are starved of oxygen, which further depletes oxygen in the water.”

We’ll be seeing much more of this in the future
