NOAA predicts above-average Gulf of Mexico dead zone this summer
NOAA scientists predict that the Gulf of Mexico’s dead zone will be larger than usual this summer, measuring about 5,827 square miles. This hypoxic area, caused by nutrient pollution, can kill off large numbers of fish and impacts marine life every year. Efforts are underway to reduce the dead zone’s size and monitor conditions for better forecasts.
