A DNA study, released on Thursday by researchers at the Scripps Institution of Oceanography, looked at a wastewater treatment plant that often becomes overwhelmed and spews sewage into the River. That river then flows north into Imperial Beach on the northern side of the border. The beach there was closed 249 days last year due to high levels of pathogens like Ecoli, norovirus and salmonella – but until now, little was known about what happened when crashing waves sent salt spray into the air.
A team of researchers sampled coastal aerosols at Imperial Beach and water from the Tijuana River for 26 days between January and May 2019, focusing on times after storms. They used DNA sequencing to match bacteria and chemical compounds in coastal aerosols back to the sewage-polluted Tijuana River flowing into the ocean.
They found that three-quarters of the bacteria in the air came directly from the sewage in the surf zone. It’s not yet clear whether these bacteria can make people sick, and experts are exploring the possible harms. “Are they potentially infectious? Some are pathogens and some are not. That’s something we’re working on now,” says Kim Prather, an atmospheric chemist at Scripps who led the work, which was published today in the journal Environmental Science and Technology.
While the degree of risks remain unknown, the study is significant because it is the first time scientists have linked such pollution to coastal sea spray.

Once upon a time Princess Suella had a dream to explore and develop a little known African country Wakanda, right next to Rwanda. She shared her dream with her friend Térèse over a Coffey . Térèse thought it was a marvelous idea .
They hatched a plan how to finance the expedition, they code nameded it Brexshite , encouraging migrants to cross into Blighty and ship them off to that little known colony Wakanda. If the migrants arriving are to healthy we can slow them up with shite and skitter in the sea ,so they will be happy to get medical treatment in Wakanda, flying off to Rwanda then a short train journey to Wakanda.
The plan was hatched sending thousands of sick unwanted migrants to Rwanda then moved on to Wakanda, we can finance our expedition flying into Rwanda as stowaway ,what could possibly go wrong?
Princess Suella was very excited , and the shite and skitter started flowing, only the shite and skitter started coming back onshore. Turnips that's the answer proclaims Térèse a diversion, turnips to stop the shite and skitter, turnips for all . Let them eat Turnips. The wakanda Brexshite plan is on hold . So code name Brexshite > # Coffey turd , the next chapter .
Again with the, it happens in England, it's British.
So you can lovely deep brown tan by visiting the seaside no need for tanning lotion now
😵💫😵💫😵💫😵😵😵😱🤮
It seems the UK was swimming in the sewar before Brexshit.
A coughing turd must be a weird sight, but not weirder than not being able to bathe in your rivers, lakes and seas, I can either walk for about 15 or 25 minutes, or 10 minutes on my bicycle or 5 minutes by car, and be at the beach. I can swim and "frolic" in the waves, if I happen to swallow some sea water no biggy, probably a nasty gag and you can solve it with some fresh water and nice coughing session or something. The kids can run around learning how to swim and be in the water, if they swallow some sea water or try to eat the sand no problem, they will just learn it is horrible and not do it again. The surfers can float around in the waves like crackhead ducks, the babes can parade around their bikinis and we all can sit in the sand and just take in the beauty of the world. So many beautiful things in the world, and what does the UK do? They poop on the world, and the poop comes back to hit them in the face, just like every action they have been enacting since they decided they wanted no part in Europe, not even for the things that would benefit them too. How long do you think until one of the neighboring countries, like Ireland, France, the Netherlands, whatever, files a complain against the UK for damages and pollution in their one waters and coastlines? Given all the love going around not much I suspect.
Like a very old Native American proverb says, "we do not inherit the land from our ancestors we borrow it from our children", someone as not played enough civilization, a great game that as always taught you something, a concept by a person I consider one of the best game designers of all times, if not the best, Sid Meir. Well perhaps I will drop by the coast and watch the sea, even if it is still dangerous, Winter Sea still, it will only break up to Summer Sea around mid April (Winter Sea, even if it is warm the currents are still northerner and dangerous, Summer Sea, even with colder weather the currents have already shifted and you can swim safely) . A nice Sunday to all.
🎵" Poop is in the air la la la la la la la ……." 🎵 🙂 Thanks Marcus, now that stuck in me brain !
And the turd my friend, its blowing in the wind, the turd is blowing in the wind…💩💩💩
Get rid of this corrupt government and make these sewerage companies clean up our rivers and seas, both the government and the companies responsible are full of shite
A government aerosol arseholes.
Allowing sewage into waterways, the sea is a Brexit win. Yet another example of just how stupid Brixiteers are.
Welcome to the Shitish Isles Sir!
… is that why Carlsberg tastes better at the beach?
Markus doesn't mind talking sh@t lol
But yay Brexit, no more EU safety rules cutting foreign shareholders profits
Turds in power, turds in the sea
If you can smell it your tasting it.
Brexit and this government are the turds that keep on giving.
Turd Coffey is her name, right?
I’m sure Cornwall is really proud for their decisions….
watiching a program 1990s about poverty it was working poor they just abolished minium wage a women said she get 3,60 a hour and said she cant complain or she loose her job all the middleclasses werent complaning they were all paid well
Phil Collins warned us years ago…
_"Can you feel it coming in the air tonight
Well, if you told me you were drowning
I would not lend a hand"_
Me neither with that water.
The celebrated wildlife revival in British waterways was once a matter of national pride has now been put paid to by the continued dumping of raw sewage into our rivers & sea
Polio & other diseases have been detected in sewage so it must stand to reason that anything living in the outfall or sprayed by water droplets is likely to be contaminated Perhaps there will be a monument in memory of Therese Coffey a huge turd might seem quite appropriate
Coffey the biggest turd of them all. We should challenge every politician who says everything is fine to a swim at the worst cites around the country. I wonder how many would have the balls to do it.
Why on earth don't you build plasma gasification waste management facility in UK in several locations instead of releasing sewage and trash into sea
Marcus.
Do you want to make me understand that Englanders get a kind of
instant shit deodorant
when going on a stroll at the beach?
So Englanders cultivate post-strolling a greatly different population of bacteria on their skin than other humans?
Are they smelling differently then?
I am just wondering what fish n chips tastes like now.
F. anoing
Poooooor Kent
so thats why tories send the elderly to the seaside to die!
But its British sh*t and its happier for it.
Gives a new meaning to eau de toilette.
What I want to know is the Sewage Happy Sewage?
In Dublin, if the plant cannot handle what is sent to it, it overflows into emergency holding tanks, to be held for a few days till it can be dealt with.
Brings a whole new meaning to «shitfaced ». This is what we voted for. We’re taking control of our borders by filling them up with shite. And anyway, this is British, sovereign shite.
Ireland cannot hold its head High on this issue.
While the cities are OK and meet European Union Standards.
Some towns do not.
That said, Iisce Eireann or Irish water is investing over 500 million Euro a year on capital investment in building new plants and upgrading older ones.
Responsibility has been taken away from councils.
Uisce Eireann is building up expertise in the field of sewage treatment and supply of potable water.
It is a semi state not for profit organisation.
Liz Truss has a lot to answer and Theresa Coffey.
Pronounced Tee-wana
But at least you guys have turnips in abundance…..enjoy……
Looking at my cuppa morning coffee and now have the thought that maybe my coffee isn't just beans & water thanks Coffey for making sure that not only is the water but air is even more screwed up.
You have not put my favourite turd description on your wee poster " Mersey trout "
'That's not a Mars bar!'
