The brown algae (Phaeophyceae) are a group of multicellular heterokonts that are
ubiquitous in today's oceans. Large brown algae from multiple orders are the foundation to …

Marine macrophytes are the foundation of algal forests and seagrass meadows–some of the
most productive and diverse coastal marine ecosystems on the planet. These ecosystems …

Species distributions have shifted in response to global warming in all major ecosystems on
the Earth. Despite cogent evidence for these changes, the underlying mechanisms are …

The largest seaweed, giant kelp (Macrocystis) is the fastest growing and most prolific of all
plants found on earth. Growing from the seafloor and extending along the ocean surface in …

Genetic diversity confers adaptive capacity to populations under changing conditions but its
role in mediating impacts of climate change remains unresolved for most ecosystems. This …

The giant kelp Macrocystis is the world's largest benthic organism and most widely
distributed kelp taxon, serving as the foundation for diverse and energy-rich habitats that are …

Seaweed population biology has received far less attention than trophic dynamics, yet is
critically important in establishing and maintaining algal communities. Complex life histories …

Ecklonia radiata is one of the most widespread kelps globally, dominating temperate reefs
throughout much of Australasia and southeastern Africa. Throughout much of its range, it is …

The paradigm of past climate-driven range shifts structuring the distribution of marine
intraspecific biodiversity lacks replication in biological models exposed to comparable …

As a peak in the global number of offshore oil rigs requiring decommissioning approaches,
there is growing pressure for the implementation of a “rigs‐to‐reefs” program in the deep …
