Foam Beaches from Australian Storm

721

The Australian storms a couple of weeks ago created a foamy ocean. It looked like a giant bubble bath. Experts say the foamy waters are a result of powerful ocean currents whipping together salts, chemicals, dead plants, decomposed fish, and seaweed excretions.

The foamy bubbles created by this mixture are brought to shore by underwater ocean currents. The waves help the bubbles surface, giving the ocean waters the frothy appearance.
