The brown macroalga Fucus vesiculosus is a foundation species in temperate rocky shores, subjected to seasonally fluctuating environmental conditions. To obtain more complete picture of the seasonality F. ecophysiology northern Baltic Sea, situ photochemistry, elemental ratios and chlorophyll c content alga were investigated field campaigns conducted different months throughout year during 2017...

A major threat to coral reefs today is the phase shift to algaldominated reefs. Algae can stress corals by overgrowing and smothering them, blocking sunlight needed for photosynthesis, and enhancing microbial growth. However, the mechanisms underlying algae-coral interactions are still poorly understood. This study examined how the tumbleweed algae Dictyota sp. affects the photophysiology of th...
