Our new paper in Nature Communications led by Federica Manca:
Projected loss of brown #macroalgae and #seagrasses with global environmental change
Great news! The new paper ‘Changes in maerl-associated macroalgal community dynamics as evidence of anthropogenic pressure’ in 
Stony coral tissue loss disease is shifting the ecological balance of #Caribbean reefs https://phys.org/news/2024-05-stony-coral-tissue-loss-disease.html paper: https://www.science.org/doi/10.1126/sciadv.adk6808
"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"
#Macroalgae #genetics study sheds light on how seaweed became multicellular

Macroalgal deep #genomics illuminate multiple paths to aquatic, photosynthetic multicellularity https://www.cell.com/molecular-plant/fulltext/S1674-2052(24)00084-4
"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"
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 https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0141113624000126
"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."
“Can Submerging Seaweed Cool the Climate?
Submerged seaweed can store carbon at the bottom of the ocean, but how effective the strategy will be—andlEeV9pLIJW9-E1xgeoxG2VweBDqealth—remains unclear.”

Great news! The newly published paper ‘Invasive macroalgae in native seagrass beds: vectors of spread and impacts’ in 
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.

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.

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!
