" said Arlo Hemphill, project lead for ocean sanctuaries with Greenpeace. "But this is completely new. You might get a foot of sargassum, which was quickly cleaned up. What we're talking about now is not a foot, it's many feet high. It's completely unmanageable."As the atmosphere warms, it's adding additional energy to the global environment, because heat=energy.
Increased land temperatures also increase wind, which in turn increases waves. Both of those contribute toNOAA is studying this but so far the results are uncertain. Rip currents are known to be primarily caused by breaking waves at the beach, and tend to be more frequent and stronger with larger waves.
