La Jolla Scripps Beach Family Photos | MB As a San Diego family photographer, I love seeing my returning family clients every fall for their fall family portraits. I get to catch up with them and see the new additions to their family! Also get to see how much their kids have grown in a year! So much can change in a year, which is why families do their annual family portraits! Many families pick…

A deep-sea creature steeped in folklore has once again washed ashore in California.
On Nov. 6, a researcher on an Encinitas beach spotted an oarfish, measuring 9 to 10 feet long. The fish typically swim at depths of 300 to 3,000 feet and are rarely seen on the surface. Yet it was the third time one has appeared in Southern California since August.
They have been associated with bad omens, according to English-language accounts of Japanese folklore.
The fish, which can grow to 30 feet in length and feed on krill, have typically washed up on beaches when injured or disoriented, according to scientists.
The current group of oarfish washing ashore "may have to do with changes in ocean conditions and increased numbers of oarfish off our coast," Ben Frable, manager of the Scripps Oceanography Marine Vertebrate Collection at UC San Diego, said in a statement. "Many researchers have suggested this as to why deep-water fish strand on beaches. Sometimes it may be linked to broader shifts such as the El Niño and La Niña cycle but this is not always the case," he said, adding that many variables could be the cause.
The previous fish were discovered in Huntington Beach in September and in La Jolla in August, according to Scripps. Before August's discovery, scientists had only recorded 19 oarfish that had washed up on the California coast since 1901, the oceanography researchers said.
Fish and muddled folklore
Oarfish have been found around the globe, but one particular country's history with the fish has gathered the most attention: Japan.
According to some media reports, oarfish have been associated in Japanese folklore with prophesies of doom — in particular, earthquakes.
Researchers in Japan looked into this in 2019: "In Japan, folklore says that uncommon appearances of deep‐sea fish are an earthquake precursor. If this folklore is proved to be true, the appearance of deep‐sea fish could be useful information for disaster mitigation," a group from Tokai University and the University of Shizuoka wrote. But they scoured news reports of deep-sea fish washing up and determined that there wasn't much of a relationship between those sightings and earthquakes.
Some accounts say the oarfish were known in centuries past as ryugu no tsukai, roughly translating to a "messenger from the Dragon Palace."
Yoshiko Okuyama, a professor of Japanese studies at the University of Hawaii at Hilo, pointed to a Japanese fairy tale with source text dating back to the 8th century. It tells the story of a fisherman named Urashima Taro who, in return for saving a turtle, is taken to the underwater palace of the Dragon King, Ryugu-jo.
"In Japan several different sea creatures have been called the Messenger of the Dragon Palace. The list includes eels and turtles," she said in an email. Adding oarfish to that list was "plausible — anything mysterious from the sea can be imagined as such, right?" but she said she was unable to immediately verify it with source material.
A database of Japanese folklore describes ryugu no tsukai as "large fish with human heads, horns, long hair, and sometimes beards." In a retelling of a legend on the folklore database, the creatures were a bit of a mixed bag. They foretold of death and disease, but said people would be saved so long as they "hear my message."

Amazing things in Nature!
Nature continues to amaze us daily, by constantly adapting to the changing world around us. One amazing thing I know about nature is bioluminescence, it’s one of the most eye-catching things I have seen myself. While vacationing, I had the privilege of seeing bioluminescence on the beach while in the Caribbean. The water lights up beautifully as you run your feet through it, and the mechanisms behind how the water lights up is even more interesting. The bioluminescence we see is essentially a chemical reaction produced by living organisms, and involves luciferin (the light), and luciferase (the catalyst) (Bedolfe, 2012). The luciferase combines luciferin with oxygen to oxidise it, which creates oxyluciferin, and photons. The light we see is the result of the chemical reaction usually occurring in the organism, but it does not always occur inside it (Bedolfe, 2012). When I ran my hands through the water and disrupted the waves, the organisms present, called dinoflagellates, produce light as a defense mechanism (Aguilera, 2015). Here is a picture below of bioluminscence in action at night!

An interesting fact I learned while diving more into this topic is that it only takes 15 milliseconds for the dinoflagellates to respond to stimuli! (Aguilera, 2015). It is extremely fascinating to think that the pretty glow I observed in the water was actually a warning from the dinoflagellates. It is also known that high levels of algal bloom are actually harmful to humans, and exposure to these phytoplanktons can cause skin irritation, and cause negative effects on ecosystems (Powell, 2022). There are different colours of bioluminescence that we can see, personally, I have seen a mix of green and blue light being produced. Another event caused by bioluminescent organisms are red tides, which are rare but can be seen more often now due to climate change. Red tides are lasting longer due to temperature changes, water pollutants, as well as severe weather events (Powell, 2022). I have never seen a red tide, but this picture below shows how they can appear to us, and it looks a little similar to an oil spill!

Red tides are made of the same bioluminescent algal blooms that are responsible for the pretty green colours we see as well (Powell, 2022). It is important that we understand the importance of acknowledging events such as red tides, as these are natural warning signs from nature. Humans have a tendency to overlook a lot of unusual events in nature, which eventually can lead to disastrous climate change that is non-reversible. I enjoy seeing the beauty in nature, especially bioluminescence, and to conserve these organisms and keep our algae levels at health levels, it's important to take care of our oceans. Can you name other species that also use bioluminescence?

City of San Diego Improves Crosswalks in Time for Students Going Back to School
It’s that time — back to school!
San Diego is making safety improvements to several key intersections before students return to school this month.
Over the last few weeks, crews from the city’s Transportation Department have added or refreshed crosswalks outside 11 schools located in Hillcrest, Logan Heights, 4S Ranch, Chollas View, City Heights, Pacific Beach, Loma Portal, Mira Mesa, Scripps Ranch, Point Loma, and Cherokee Point. 
“Providing the latest and most effective safety features for pedestrians and all road users is one of the highest priorities of the Transportation Department,” said Transportation Director Bethany Bezak. “In this case, we were able to maximize our available funding by making data-driven decisions on which school crossings to refresh as students and their families prepare for the back-to-school season.”
Upgrades to intersections include installing or repainting continental crosswalks, which provide greater visibility and improved guidance for pedestrians and motorists. Thermoplastic pavement painting and school crossing signs have been added in both directions to provide drivers with advanced notice before approaching the crosswalk. While crews were on site at these locations, they also refreshed street infrastructure, including repainting curbs and re-striping nearby roadway markings.
The safety upgrades and new crosswalks were selected based on location data generated by Get It Done reports and other requests for service. The schools where nearby crosswalks were updated include:
·        Florence Elementary School
·        King-Chavez Primary Academy
·        Del Norte High School & Design 39 Campus Elementary
·        America’s Finest Charter School
·        Clark Middle School
·        Sessions Elementary School
·        Loma Portal Elementary School
·        Jerabek Elementary School
·        Point Loma High School 
·        Edison Elementary School
·        Sandburg Elementary School
Upgrades to these crosswalks near C=city schools come as Mayor Todd Gloria’s FY25 budget.
“Protecting Our Progress” budget provides record investments in street repair, critical infrastructure, and pedestrian safety. This latest budget allocates more than $40 million to the Transportation Department to implement the city’s Vision Zero goals to eliminate traffic fatalities and severe injuries in San Diego. This includes projects and safety improvements to intersections, bicycle facilities, guardrails, sidewalks, streetlights, traffic signals, and medians.

Waves along California’s Central Coast are getting bigger as human-caused climate change warms the planet, according to a new study published this week in the Journal of Geophysical Research: Oceans.
Average winter wave height has increased by roughly one foot since 1970, the year that corresponds with global warming’s rapid acceleration, per the researchers.
And storms that produce waves measuring 13 feet high and taller have become more common, with twice as many of these events occurring between 1996 and 2016 as they did between 1949 and 1969, the researchers found. In recent years, those storms have occurred an average of 23 times each winter.
Taken together, the findings suggest that if average global temperatures continue to rise, California’s already threatened coast will be at an even greater risk of erosion and flooding as ocean water comes crashing in.
“It’s just one more indication that things are going in the wrong direction,” says Gary Griggs, an oceanographer at the University of California Santa Cruz who was not involved in the new research, to KSBW’s Ariana Jaso. “It’s like a giant chemistry experiment, only we can’t turn it off … waves are getting bigger, more powerful, the weather’s getting crazier. So that’s going to be more impact on the shoreline.”
To understand how waves have changed, study author Peter Bromirski, an oceanographer at the Scripps Institution of Oceanography, analyzed 90 years of seismic data captured between 1931 and 2021.
Scientists have only been making direct wave height measurements along the California coast since 1980, so looking at seismic data allowed Bromirski to go back much further in time. Seismic data can be used as a proxy for wave height, because when waves crash down and rebound off the coast, they collide with new, incoming waves, sending energy down into the ocean floor, where seismographs are recording. More energy equals taller waves.
He wasn’t surprised when the data showed taller waves and more intense storms, as that tracks with the effects of global warming.
“Warming puts more energy into the atmosphere, and you end up with stronger storms, which produce stronger winds and higher waves,” he tells the San Diego Union-Tribune’s Gary Robbins.
California’s coastline is already vulnerable to sea-level rise, erosion, stormy weather and other effects of climate change. Cliffs and even roadways have collapsed because of erosion and mudslides, which creates dangerous and, at times, deadly situations.
Average sea levels have risen roughly eight inches along the Golden State’s coast over the last 100 years, per the California Coastal Commission.
And scientists say the situation is likely to get worse: By the year 2100, between 25 and 70 percent of California’s beaches may disappear completely due to erosion from rising sea levels. Property worth an estimated $8 billion to $10 billion could be underwater by the year 2050.
“Erosion, coastal flooding, damage to coastal infrastructure is… something that we’re seeing more frequently than in the past,” Bromirski tells the Associated Press’ Julie Watson. “And… combined with sea-level rise, bigger waves mean that is going to happen more often.”
