Re: Luminescent dinoflagellates
Hi Michael! I cannot explain more about this phenomenon. Here in Sweden you can see this in late summer and early autumn in late evening and night. It is called Mareld in Swedish = bioluminescence and it is caused by millions of plankton. It is a beautiful and fantastic natural phenomenon. // KD

Reminds me of the blueish light liquid in the Selenite tunnels on the moon (H. G. Wells, First Men on the Moon). Perhaps Wells imported the natural phenomenon into the novel...

But it doesn’t do justice to the beauty and spectacle
