Ele Willoughby, PhD<p>This linocut shows a smack of jellyfish. The collective noun for a group of jellyfish is a "smack". This amuses me, because I imagine them smacking their tentacles together in some sort of deepsea high five. To be honest, marine biologists speak of 'blooms' and we do tend to lump in a bunch of soft-bodies marine creatures into the term jellyfish, all of the gelatinous zooplankton in fact....</p><p>🧵</p><p><a href="https://spore.social/tags/linocut" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>linocut</span></a> <a href="https://spore.social/tags/printmaking" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>printmaking</span></a> <a href="https://spore.social/tags/jellyfish" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>jellyfish</span></a> <a href="https://spore.social/tags/termsOfVenery" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>termsOfVenery</span></a> <a href="https://spore.social/tags/invertebrate" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>invertebrate</span></a> <a href="https://spore.social/tags/lettering" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>lettering</span></a> <a href="https://spore.social/tags/mastoArt" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>mastoArt</span></a></p>

Without access to cool water, a nuclear power plant risks overheating. The intake pipes can also be damaged, which disrupts power generation. And ocean life that gets sucked into a power plant’s intake pipes risks death. </p><p>[...]</p><p>"The clash between gelatinous jellyfish and hulking nuclear power plants has a long history. These spineless, brainless, bloodless creatures shut down the Torness nuclear power plant in 2011 at a cost of approximately $1.5 million per day, according to one estimate. Swarms of these invertebrates have also been responsible for nuclear power plant shutdowns in Israel, Japan, the United States, the <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Philippines" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Philippines</span></a>, <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/SouthKorea" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>SouthKorea</span></a>, and Sweden.</p><p>"Humans have unwittingly nurtured the adversarial relationship between jellyfish and nuclear power plants. That is, human-induced <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/ClimateChange" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>ClimateChange</span></a> has raised ocean water temperatures, setting conditions for larger-than-usual jellyfish populations. Further, the relatively warm water near nuclear power plant discharge outlets may attract jellyfish swarms, according to one study. Also, <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/pollution" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>pollution</span></a> has lowered <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/oxygen" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>oxygen</span></a> levels in sea water, which jellyfish tolerate more than other marine animals, leading to their proliferation.</p><p>"Some look at jellyfish and see elegant ballerinas of the sea, while others view them as pests. Either way, they are nothing if not resilient. Jellyfish are 95 percent water, drift in topical waters and the Arctic Ocean, and thrive in the ocean’s bottom as well as on its surface.

About 13,000 stings were recorded in the past week.</p><p>"In June last year, over the course of just one week, over 1,000 people were stung in Volusia County, <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Florida" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Florida</span></a>, following a period of exceptionally prolific jellyfish blooms. The explosion in their numbers has been attributed to warming seas and even increased pollution; unlike many other marine creatures, jellyfish can cope with reduced oxygen levels.</p><p>Small but deadly – at least some of the time</p><p>"Typically, jellyfish range in size from 1cm to 40cm. But they can be significantly larger – the <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/LionsManeJellyfish" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>LionsManeJellyfish</span></a>, for example, can reach 1.8 metres wide, with tentacles over 15 metres long.</p><p>"For the most part, the sting of a jellyfish is more unpleasant than it is harmful. The pain comes from venom delivered via millions of microscopic barbs in the creatures’ tentacles. Most jellyfish stings will only have a localized effect on the victim – redness, swelling, and discomfort where the barbs make contact with the skin.</p><p>"Some, however, will prompt a systemic, whole body, reaction. These may take several hours to emerge and can include symptoms such as headaches, nausea and drowsiness.</p><p>"In rare cases, the sting can be fatal. This is true of the <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/BoxJellyfish" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>BoxJellyfish</span></a>, which is spreading into waters that had previously been too cool to support it; its venom causes a severe reaction that can cause death within minutes.</p><p>A force of destruction</p><p>"But these booming jellyfish populations are doing far more harm than ruining people’s trips to the beach. In fact, the scope of their disruption has extended far beyond the water’s edge.</p><p>"In 2011, both reactors at the <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/TornessNuclearPowerPlant" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>TornessNuclearPowerPlant</span></a> in <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Scotland" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Scotland</span></a> were shut down after an invasion of jellyfish started blocking the cooling filters. Two years later, the jellyfish struck again – this time in <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Sweden" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Sweden</span></a>. They forced the closure of the <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/OskarshamnNuclearPowerPlant" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>OskarshamnNuclearPowerPlant</span></a>, which contains the world’s largest boiling-water reactor.</p><p>"The island of Luzon, home of the Phillippines’ capital Manilla, suffered a blackout in 1999 due to jellyfish, and in 2006 the <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/USSRonaldReagan" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>USSRonaldReagan</span></a>, a nuclear-powered aircraft carrier, was brought to a standstill by thousands of the little creatures. And while these events may stand out as exceptions, they are increasing in both scale and frequency. </p><p>"From sea-bed diamond mining in Namibia to salmon farming in Ireland, even jeopardising the sustainability of beluga caviar farming in the Caspian Sea, jellyfish are as destructive as they are abundant. And that abundance is being caused by a variety of factors, many of which are related to human activity.</p><p>Some like it hot</p><p>"Over the last hundred or so years, the average surface temperature of the world’s seas has risen by about 0.9°C. As the oceans get warmer, marine animals are able to spread into areas that had historically been too cold. Oxygen levels in the sea have fallen by around 2% over the last 50 years, due to rising temperatures and <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/pollution" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>pollution</span></a> [including <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/NuclearOceanDumping" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>NuclearOceanDumping</span></a>, which reduces oxygen levels]</p><p>"Jellyfish can thrive in areas with lower oxygen levels, where other animals suffer. But there are other factors at work, too. Fishing has depleted the global stocks of some of the jellyfish’s natural predators – such as <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/tuna" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>tuna</span></a> and <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/swordfish" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>swordfish</span></a> – and some they compete with for food – such as anchovies. With more food and fewer predators, some jellyfish populations can grow unchecked.</p><p>"In the <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/BlackSea" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>BlackSea</span></a>, unchecked population growth is precisely what’s happened. <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/AnchovyFishing" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>AnchovyFishing</span></a> in the region had caused harm to the Black Sea’s ecosystem by the time stowaway jellyfish made the journey there from the eastern seaboard of the USA. Most likely transported in the ballast water of ships that made the crossing, 1982 saw the arrival of the warty comb jelly. By 1990, there were 900 million tons of them in the Black Sea.</p><p>"There are believed to be around 200 different species of jellyfish, not all of which can sting, and some are considered edible. This could offer one potential, and creative, approach toward dealing with an over-abundance of jellyfish – co-opting them onto our dinner plates."
