L.A. fires wreaked havoc on the land. Scientists are racing to learn what they've done to the sea
The debris and pollution from the recent L.A. fires will eventually make their way to the ocean — and scientists will be gauging the impact.

Making the news
Smoke and ash from wildfires are linked to a number of serious health problems in humans, including heart disease, asthma and certain types of cancer and dementia.

It’s more unclear how wildfire smoke pollution impacts ocean species.
L.A. fires are bringing ash 100 miles offshore. Here’s how it may impact oceans
The Eaton and Palisades fires produced ash and debris that coated ocean waters far off the California coast.

Researchers from @scrippsocean.bsky.social and @noaa.gov conducting routine sampling off the coast documented ash extending 100 miles offshore as the #Palisades and #EatonFires raged. They are now tracking the likely effects of toxics on the marine ecosystem. bit.ly/4aE8eXx #LAFires
