Am 26. Februar 2010 kämpften die Behörden von Rio de Janeiro mit einem Fischsterben um die Lagune Rodrigo de Freitas. Rund 78 Tonnen tote Fische wurden aus dem Salzsee geholt. Erste wissenschaftliche Analysen ergaben, dass eine neue Algenart in dem Gewässer das Sauerstoffniveau verändert haben und zu dem Massen- Fischsterben geführt haben könnte.

Tons of death fish washed up on the shores of a lagoon of an urban area (Lagoa Rodrigo de Freitas) of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.
The official state news service Agencia Brasil said about 100 city employees working full-time cleared nearly 80 tons of fish as of Sunday. There was no immediate estimate of how many died, but several species were involved.
Rio's environmental secretary speculates that increased levels of a harmful algae may be the immediate cause of the sudden die-off Friday.
