Second wave of South Australia’s toxic algal bloom could be imminent, scientist warns

  • A second wave of South Australia’s toxic algal bloom could be imminent as algae levels rise near the Eyre Peninsula, according to oceanographer Dr. Jochen Kaempf.
  • In late April the bloom appeared to dissipate across most of the state, but Bickers Island still showed high toxin levels.
  • Testing later showed a sharp rise, with Bickers Island at 348,080 cells per litre and elevated readings at six of 32 sites.
  • Experts warn that cooler months could still extend the bloom’s reach, moving northwards toward Whyalla.
  • Environmental researchers describe a long recovery tail for ecosystems damaged by the 2025 bloom.
  • Community groups, including OzFish, launched restoration projects along Adelaide’s coastline.
  • Scientists track bloom movement using ocean-current data to predict future spread.
  • Giant cuttlefish migrations near Point Lowly may be affected as the bloom returns.
  • Officials emphasize continued monitoring and regional habitat restoration efforts.
