Detoxification of sulphidic African shelf waters by blooming chemolithotrophs

Algae that bloom unnoticed Data obtained by RV Alexander von Humboldt in waters off the Namibian coast reveal that an area of about 7,000 km 2 of African coastal shelf, covered by sulphidic water, was detoxified by the action of bacteria: the biologically harmful sulphide was oxidized to non-toxic c...
