Winyah Bay is a coastal estuary that's located near Georgetown , South Carolina , and flows into the Atlantic Ocean .
Rotten vegetation releases chemicals such as tannin, phenol and humic acid, which stain the water brown.
After heavy rains, floodwater gathers more CDOM and feeds into rivers, before being washed into the sea.
Increased CDOM levels in the ocean mean less blue light can penetrate deep into the water column.
