The Salish Sea, a dynamic system of straits, fjords, and channels in southwestern British
Columbia, is home to ecologically and culturally important bull kelp (Nereocystis luetkeana) …

Rapid ocean warming is affecting kelp forests globally. While the sporophyte life stage has
been well studied for many species, the microscopic life stages of laminarian kelps have …

Kelp forest declines have been linked to warming ocean temperatures worldwide. Ocean
warming rarely occurs in isolation, so multiple stressor studies are necessary to understand …

Thermal sensitivity in ectothermic organisms is often contingent upon environmental factors.
Nutrient availability in particular is believed to influence the physiological responses of …

Kelp forests are among the most abundant coastal marine habitats but are vulnerable to
climate change. The Northeast Pacific has experienced recent large-scale changes in kelp …

Contemporary climate change has brought to light the extent and pace at which ecosystems
can be altered by anthropogenic pressures. With this observation comes an urge to predict …

Kelp forests are highly productive coastal ecosystems on 25% of the world's coastlines,
providing key biogenic habitats in nearshore ecosystems. These ecosystems are …

Worldwide, the cultivation of seaweed (marine macroalgae) is growing rapidly. While the
majority of this growth is in east Asia, seaweed cultivation is also increasing in North …

Species range movement due to changing ocean conditions is occurring around the world.
As species move, they build new interaction networks as they shift from or into new …

This study investigated the effects of elevated temperatures on the reproductive and
developmental stages of Nereocystis luetkeana, a crucial brown macroalgae found along …
