“The problem on the beach is a social problem”, I completely agree with this! Jellyfish populations are sharply increasing, stinging more people and wreaking economic damage. The increase appears to be part of a natural cycle (jellyfish populations are declining in some other areas).
As the Jellyfish number grows, it indicates a stressed system. Higher nutrient levels in the water tend to support larger populations of jellyfish. This whole thing could be a result from runoff of fertilizer and sewage. Over fishing also removes the jellyfish’s main competitor for food. I hope something is done about this situation, before it gets out of control.
