Economic consequences caused by unmitigated jellyfish population growth are no less ubiquitous. For example, several studies have concluded that skyrocketing jellyfish growth has resulted in extraordinary revenue losses for fisheries, estimated at over 1 billion USD in countries like Turkey, Iran and Korea . Coastal tourism economies have also been direly affected, with several estimates of millions of dollars in revenue loss due to negative publicity related to jellyfish . The city of Cannes removed almost 11 million tons of jellyfish from its beaches and spent close to 50,000 USD on floaters and netting to make two of its most popular beaches jellyfish-free areas the size of Olympic swimming pools . Additionally, jellyfish frequently clogging seawater intakes of power and desalination plants have led to increased maintenance costs and temporary shutdowns .
