In an effort to protect the health and safety of beachgoers and the Ocean State’s tourism industry, U.S. Senator Jack Reed is urging federal researchers from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) to provide answers about the increasing jellyfish populations found in two Charlestown salt ponds. The Rhode Island Department of Health (RIDOH) and the Rhode Island Department of Environmental Management (DEM) recently advised the public that Atlantic sea nettle jellyfish ( Chrysaora quinquecirrha) have been spotted in high numbers in Ninigret and Green Hill Ponds. The Atlantic sea nettle is milky-white with a see-through profile that sometimes has red markings and can sting, causing moderate discomfort and itchy welts. It flourishes south from Cape Cod along the East Coast, according to NOAA, and is found most often in the Chesapeake Bay, but ranges all the way down to the Caribbean and Gulf of Mexico.
