Algal bloom in Bosporus

by Konstantinos Kourtidis, Demokritus University of Thrace, Xanthi, Greece

Extensive filaments of algae in the sea near Istanbul. Photograph form a commercial airliner. I was actually flying to the EGU general Assembly in Wien directly from Thessaloniki but Austrian cancelled the flight and we were redirected to Wien via Istanbul.
