Description

Hassien M Alnashiri and team checked pollution in two Red Sea harbors near Jazan, Saudi Arabia, and a nearby control coastline. Their 2026 work weighs polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, pesticide traces, heavy metals, and salt-loving microbes at Madaia and Saha harbors. Harbor outflows may spread to cleaner coasts, yet joined-up pollution data for this southwestern Red Sea stretch had been thin.

Harbor by harbor, the leading hydrocarbons differed, while terbufos, methyl parathion, and malathion led pesticide hits across sites. Arsenic, mercury, and lead peaked at the control coastline, and salt-loving germs and yeasts turned up across sites. Stats tied control-coast pollution in a negative way to harbor outflows, with Saha as the main source. The work gives regulators a source-aware baseline for harbor pollution control.
