'Blue waves' hitting the coastline in Chennai left beachgoers amused and several visitors gushed about the rare occurrence on social media.
On Sunday night, bioluminescent waves were spotted along the East Coast Road in Chennai from Kovalam to Thiruvanmiyur beaches and people tweeted pictures and videos of the phenomenon, reported India Today.
One Twitter user wrote: 'Witnessing intense insane #bioluminescence at the Palavakkam beach at #chennai right now. this is beyond marvellous'.
According to marine experts, the blue glow is known as Bioluminescence and is caused by Noctiluca scintillans, a type of phytoplankton that converts their chemical energy into light energy when washed ashore.
This is by far, the best video I've seen so far of the bioluminescent planktons on Chennai's beaches! Simply spectacular! Nature's marine marvel quietly working it's magic, whether there is an audience or not !!https://t.co/R9jVshqJrh pic.twitter.com/TU0TpPusBuBioluminescence is found in many marine organisms such as bacteria, algae, jellyfish, worms, crustaceans, sea stars, fish and sharks. Marine experts believe it is an indicator of climate change and bioluminescence could disrupt the long term health of an eco system.

They have also been implicated in the decline of fisheries in some places! I'll be ok the lookout for fishkill reported by Chennai's fishers in the aftermath'.
