Abstract The macroalga Macrocystis pyrifera (“giant” or “bladder” kelp) plays a vital role in cold‐temperate marine ecosystems but faces increasing threats from ongoing environmental change. Understanding its population diversity and connectivity is essential for predicting future range shifts and assessing the ecological consequences of such shifts in

Abstract Kelp forests are declining in many parts of the world due to climate change and other stressors. Restoration is one solution to return kelp forests to places where they have been lost, yet continually warming oceans may necessitate the identification of thermally tolerant strains to facilitate the long‐term success of kelp restoration.

Macroalgae respond to consumer‐mediated nutrient cycling in a temperate ecosystem
Abstract Primary production in coastal upwelling regions has often been presumed to be supported primarily by allochthonous nutrients, but inconsistent nutrient delivery and the metabolic cost of nitrate assimilation can leave producers nitrogen limited during the growing season. As a potential supplement for insufficient allochthonous supply, nutrient

Abstract The sugar kelp Saccharina latissima is a promising candidate for sustainable aquaculture in the North Atlantic and Northeast Pacific, but genetic improvement has been hindered by a limited understanding of the genetic basis of economically important traits.

When is it proper or acceptable for a speaker to presuppose a proposition in the course of performing a speech act? Taking Stalnaker's common ground model as my background, I argue that this is best framed as a matter of the conversational permissibility of the speaker's presupposition, and that we should not construe this permissibility in terms of ...

ABSTRACT Virtue epistemology has long struggled with the “Creditability Dilemma”: how can knowledge gained through deference be creditable to the knower if it primarily depends on others’ cognitive work? We propose a novel solution by developing a telic account of doxastic deference as a distinctive kind of social‐epistemic performance.

Secrecy: An Epistemological Account
ABSTRACT Although the ethical and political implications of secrecy are significant, I argue here that its fundamental nature is epistemological and that any account of its nature must be based on its epistemological profile. In particular, I propose examining secrecy within the framework of social and political epistemology, considering secrets as ...

Indigenous resurgence in the Blue Economy: Relational values to guide kelp mariculture
Decisions about how to use ocean spaces are increasingly attuned to issues of social equity, environmental sustainability and climate resilience, yet often bypass local governance, knowledge, values and thus objectives.

Active Components in Kelp Beer and Its Anticoagulant Effect
The brewing technology of kelp beer with kelp powder and its anticoagulant effect were explored in this study by pre-trials and laboratory-scale tests, the adding method and dosage of kelp powder were determined by analysis of anticoagulant effect and ...

Habitat forming 'ecosystem engineers' such as kelp species create complex habitats that support biodiverse and productive communities. Studies of the resilience and stability of ecosystem engineers have typically focussed on the role of external factors ...
