Dr. Hussein Al-Masqati, Director of the Fisheries Development Department in Seeb, has announced the phenomenon of shrimp mortality in the Dhofar region. This phenomenon is attributed to the effects of climate change and oxygen deficiency in the waters, which significantly impacts marine life in the area.

Causes of the Phenomenon

According to Dr. Al-Masqati, climate change plays a pivotal role in this phenomenon, as it causes changes in water temperatures and the levels of oxygen available to marine organisms. Additionally, the lack of oxygen in the waters exacerbates the problem, making the environment uninhabitable for shrimp.

This issue was discussed in the Noon Hour program with Madeeha Al-Sulaimaniya on Al-Wisal channel, emphasizing the importance of scientific research to address these natural phenomena and their negative impacts on the marine environment and local economy.
