[HTML][HTML] Monitoring drift and associated biodiversity of nearshore rafts of holopelagic Sargassum spp. in the Mexican Caribbean

BI van Tussenbroek, LV Monroy-Velázquez… - Aquatic Botany, 2024 - Elsevier
Recent recurrent inundations of holopelagic Sargassum species (sargasso) in the tropical
North Atlantic warrant studies to increase our understanding of this phenomenon. We
carried out a multidisciplinary study to determine the drift and associated biota of sargasso
rafts in nearshore waters of a reef system in the Mexican Caribbean, during the 2020–2022
influx seasons. Home-designed trackable drifting buoys revealed notorious influence of
winds stronger than 4–5 ms− 1 on the rafts´ displacement. At lower wind velocities, the drift …
