  1. Shifting #Climate Alters Pattern of #Atlantic’s Giant #Seaweed Blobs
    Blooms of yellowish-brown seaweed along the Equator are breaking records and defiling beaches, while a centuries-old patch farther north is disappearing.
    A study published Thursday in the journal Nature Geoscience finds a big shift in the growth patterns of #sargassum, a type of floating #macroalgae that provides food and shelter for fish, turtles, seabirds and other marine life.

    Projected loss of brown #macroalgae and #seagrasses with global environmental change

  7. Stony coral tissue loss disease is shifting the ecological balance of #Caribbean reefs phys.org/news/2024-05-stony-co paper: science.org/doi/10.1126/sciadv

    "the disease not only reduces #coral populations but also diminishes coralline #algae, the resilient pink crust that is crucial for building reef structure. Consequently, certain fast-growing, weedy species, including #macroalgae, #cyanobacteria, and #FireCoral, thrive in the absence of competitors, spreading into the vacant spaces"

  8. #Macroalgae #genetics study sheds light on how seaweed became multicellular
    phys.org/news/2024-04-macroalg

    Macroalgal deep #genomics illuminate multiple paths to aquatic, photosynthetic multicellularity cell.com/molecular-plant/fullt

    "Three lineages of #algae developed #multicellularity independently and during very different time periods by acquiring genes that enable cell adhesion, extracellular matrix formation, and cell differentiation"

  9. Rising sea surface temperatures have led to profound changes in #macroalgae communities over the last 40 years

    The thermal journey of macroalgae: Four decades of temperature-induced changes in the southeastern #BayOfBiscay sciencedirect.com/science/arti

    "One of the main conclusions drawn is the increase in warm-affinity species in the #algae communities off the #Basque coast due to the increase in temperature, while cold-affinity ones are becoming less numerous."

  14. kelp time :U
    Aren't they cuuuute?

    The only thing, is, I think I should have made a yellowy color on the bull kelp.
    Like, kelp in general are really yellow anyway and I was already taking some artistic license with the greens. Giant brown algae gonna be kinda brown rofl

  15. Scuba diving in the kelp forest in Funningsfjørður today. The Saccharina Latissima and Alaria Esculenta has grown very well since February and harvesting is ready. It will be cut now and will grow almost as much again before the second harvest in October #OceanRainforest #ScubaDiving #Diving #Kelp #Macroalgae #FaroeIslands

  16. RT @OceanYodeller: Our paper that mapped #intertidal #macroalgae and #eelgrass in SW Greenland was supported by @HereonHelmholtz, @EcoscienceAU, and @ARC_AU.

    CTD data and #Sentinel2 images were provided by @GEM_Arctic and @CopernicusEU, respectively

    Lots of #opensource #science in this paper!

  17. In this new contribution, we compared the CO₂ removal (#CDR) potential and biogeochemical impacts of ocean alkalinity enhancement (#OAE) and #macroalgae afforestation using a global high-resolution ocean biogeochemical model.

    tl;dr: OAE is better.

  20. Green #macroalgae of the genus #Ulva, also known as #sea #lettuce, are almost ubiquitous in the wider Baltic Sea region and can be found from the #Atlantic waters all the way up to the Bay of Bothnia in the #Baltic Sea.

  21. Pretty proud to be part of the Ocean Rainforest team as we secure funding for future growth together with investors like The Grantham Foundation for the Protection of the Environment, Katapult Ocean's Deep Blue fund, Builders Vision and the Ocean Born Foundation.

    As Paul Dobbins, Senior Director of Impact Investing at World Wildlife Fund - US, says: “With limited environmental impacts and a low carbon footprint, seaweed absorbs CO2 and other excess nutrients from the ocean, making this fast-growing crop a climate-smart and nutritious food source,”

    “But seaweed can only thrive as a climate change solution if we create a market for the many food, feed and fossil-based replacement products seaweed can provide. Ocean Rainforest is addressing the feed market and their successful capital raise shines a spotlight on this growing opportunity.”

  28. Internet giant Amazon is providing $1.6 million in funding for the development of a seaweed farm located between the turbines in an offshore wind farm in the Netherlands.

    Part of a larger effort by Dutch authorities to make better use of the sea space within the wind farm lease areas, this project is designed to test and improve methods of seaweed farming, while researching the potential of seaweed to sequester carbon.
