Effects of temperature and nutrients on microscopic stages of the bull kelp (Nereocystis luetkeana, Phaeophyceae)
Warming ocean temperatures have been linked to kelp forest declines worldwide, and
elevated temperatures can act synergistically with other local stressors to exacerbate kelp …

Is the South-Mediterranean Canopy-Forming Ericaria giacconei (= Cystoseira hyblaea) a Loser From Ocean Warming?
Canopy-forming brown algae support highly productive ecosystems whose decline has
been attributed to the interplay of several anthropogenic disturbances. Climate change …

Heat stress analysis suggests a genetic basis for tolerance in Macrocystis pyrifera across developmental stages
Kelps are vital for marine ecosystems, yet the genetic diversity underlying their capacity to
adapt to climate change remains unknown. In this study, we focused on the kelp Macrocystis …

Tolerance of coralline algae to ocean warming and marine heatwaves
Ocean warming (OW) and marine heatwaves (MHWs) rapidly transform marine ecosystems,
especially when they impact keystone or foundation species. Foundation species such as …

Bull kelp (Nereocystis luetkeana) growth rates as climate stress indicators for Canada's Pacific coast
Primary producers' growth rates are ideal bioindicators of changing climate due to their
sensitivity to environmental conditions. On the Central Coast of British Columbia, we …

The influence of ammonium to nitrate ratio on the thermal responses of early life stages of the giant kelp Macrocystis pyrifera
The distribution and productivity of seaweeds, including kelps, are strongly influenced by
changes in temperature and inorganic nitrogen (Ni) availability. However, their tolerances …
