Cal. (UP) "Red waVr." which has appeared in the Pacific ocean off points 2000 miles apart during the past months, has started scientists of the University of California's Serlpps Institution of Oceanography on a study of the phe nomenon. The coloration is known to be caused by the presence of vast masses of marine microscopic organ isms, called diatoms, but there, still ts much to be learned about the cause and nature of red water. Early last June Dr. W. E. Allen of the Institution found a particular. manifestation of this phenomenon the water was so red It seemed the color of blood and became so dense that It interfered with fishing ac tivities near the Coronado Islands. It was estimated that the area of "red water" was 25 or 30 miles long by to miles wide. The phenomenon. It was deter mined, was earned by the same form of marine life which was responsible for wholesale destruction of inshore animal life along the southern Cali fornia coast in 1001. Earlier in May, similar manifestation was noted off Seaside, Washington, north or the Columbia river. Here the ccyor- lng was attributed to a f lanKton diatom which had ben previously noted In northern waters but never before in such abundance. Another type of diatom was re sponsible for a similar coloration oi Copalls beach, north of aray s Har bor. Ore., the previous day. It ex tended some distance out to sea. Truck airings Fortune.
