Cause of the Biskopsberga phenomenon?

Above Biskopsberga, Sweden (1808, or 1816?) the sun look'd kind of dark red colored and millions of dark globule shaped bodies flew across the sky (appearing above the western horizon and disappearing above the eastern horizon). Some of those globule shaped bodies descended to the ground and vanished quickly (as a thin film of fluid soap). Could this have been related to sea foam which was transported by wind, over land?

Biogeochemistry

Hello all, Several students from a biogeochemistry graduate course are interested in expanding and editing this article to include more detail on formation, ecology, and chemical components of sea foam. Please let us know if that will be an issue or if there is anything we should be aware of. Thank you! Vickeroodle (talk) 21:22, 6 November 2018 (UTC)Vickeroodle[reply]

It would be great if we could expand the article to include if Sea Foam is part of a pollution issue (as in did it occur hundreds of years ago were there any reports of it in any writings?) JulianHensey (talk) 13:55, 4 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

File:Sea foam at Ocean Beach in San Francisco -1 on 3-25-11.jpg to appear as POTD soon

Hello! This is a note to let the editors of this article know that File:Sea foam at Ocean Beach in San Francisco -1 on 3-25-11.jpg will be appearing as picture of the day on November 30, 2012. You can view and edit the POTD blurb at Template:POTD/2012-11-30. If this article needs any attention or maintenance, it would be preferable if that could be done before its appearance on the Main Page so Wikipedia doesn't look bad. :) Thanks! —howcheng {chat} 18:43, 26 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Picture of the day

Sea foam is a type of foam created by the agitation of seawater, particularly when it contains higher concentrations of dissolved organic matter. These compounds can act as surfactants or foaming agents. As the seawater is churned by breaking waves in the surf zone adjacent to the shore, the compounds trap air, forming bubbles which stick to each other through surface tension.Photo: Mbz1
