Explanation:
The red sea is named for the Trichodesmium erythraeum algae, an occasional bloom of cyanobacteria that accumutates and muddies the normally translucent blue-green waters. On the surface of these lakes, these cyanobacteria appear as red and pinkish mats. Trichodesmium will die after flowering, and the sea will turn reddish-brown. During a "bloom" of cyanobacteria, the appearance of body of water changes dramatically. Trichodesmium erythraeum is also known as "sea sawdust".
