Sharp drop in jellyfish sightings...so far - timesofmalta.com
"We are investigating what is going on, it could be a variety of factors, notably sea water temperature" scientist Alan Deidun said when contacted. We are in the process of comparing the sea temperature this month with that of last year."
Currents, he added, could also be a factor.
He confirmed that sightings of the mauve stinger (Pelagia noctiluca), the most common type of jellyfish in Maltese waters, were down by between 80% and 90%.
