Dataset of breaking down the ecological stability of a giant kelp forest community

open access: yes, 2023
Here we analysed the resistance, resilience, and recovery of aggregate functions and composition of a community exposed to the experimental removal of the giant kelp Macrocystis pyrifera.

Experimental Cultivation of Giant Kelp in Oceanic Environments [PDF]

open access: yesVolume 2: Solar Energy, 1979
Producing biomass in the ocean was conceived in the late 1960s by Hall and Wilcox as an alternative energy source whose attractions included abundances of available space on the sea surface, plant nutrients in the ocean depths, and environmental energy in the waves and currents.

Oceanographic Drivers of Larval Transport Variability in South Atlantic Jasus paulensis Populations

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Oceans, Volume 131, Issue 7, July 2026.
Abstract Effective fisheries management requires an understanding of the key influences on population variability. A fundamental driver of variability, particularly for isolated island populations, is the transport of planktonic early‐life stages.

North Pacific Extreme Storms Reconstructed With a Novel Approach to Estimating Storm Frequency and Uncertainty

open access: yesPaleoceanography and Paleoclimatology, Volume 41, Issue 7, July 2026.
Abstract Sedimentary archives of tropical cyclones have been primarily developed in back barrier settings and karst basins at low to mid‐latitude sites in the Atlantic. Here, a unique record of high‐latitude storms is presented from Skan Bay, Unalaska in the Eastern Aleutian Islands. Storm‐induced coarse deposits in a 20.5 m composite sediment core are

The Effect of Differential Flow Speeds and Kelp Morphology on Membranipora membranacea Settlement

open access: yes, 2021
Kelp provides important habitats for a large variety of organisms such as epiphytic bryozoans. The relationship between the bryozoan and their kelp substrate is influenced by biological, chemical, and physical factors.

Guideline for the electrospinning of food biomacromolecules

open access: yesFood Biomacromolecules, Volume 3, Issue 2, Page 406-417, June 2026.
Abstract Electrospinning, an efficient method for producing micro‐ and nanoscale fibers, has undergone a notable resurgence in recent decades since its origin in the early 20th century, largely driven by advances in nanotechnology. Subsequently, it has been extensively applied across various disciplines, including materials science, biomedicine ...

Models reveal potential synergies in management actions for bull kelp forest resilience and restoration

open access: yesJournal of Applied Ecology, Volume 63, Issue 6, June 2026.
We found that urchin culling and kelp seeding interventions can be effective at rebuilding kelp forests, but require intensive effort (e.g. removing 25%–50% of urchins over multiple years), especially in the absence of predators. Our results provide recommendations for the magnitude and timing of culling and seeding that would be needed to provide ...

Living on the Edge: Variation in the Abundance and Demography of a Kelp Forest Epibiont

open access: yesDiversity, 2019
The ecology of an epibiont may depend not only on the dynamics of its biogenic habitat but also on microclimate variation generated within aggregations of its host, a process called physical ecosystem engineering.

Centennial persistence of kelp forests on the West Coast of Vancouver Island, Canada

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science
Canopy-forming kelps, bull kelp (Nereocystis luetkeana) and giant kelp (Macrocystis tenuifolia), form dynamic underwater forests that underpin coastal biodiversity, fisheries, and human well-being.

Co‐creating solutions to the hidden impacts of climate change on Canada's Pacific kelp forests

open access: yesPeople and Nature
Co‐designed research driven by the information needs of coastal communities can enhance social‐ecological resilience to climate change. On the Central Coast of British Columbia, Canada, the 2014–2015 marine heatwave triggered an outbreak of an encrusting
