What are algae? Algae are organisms that perform photosynthesis; that is, they absorb carbon dioxide and release oxygen (therefore they have chlorophyll, a group of green pigments used by photosynthetic organisms that convert sunlight into energy via photosynthesis) and live in water or in humid places. Algae have great variability and are divided into

Macroalgae decrease growth and alter microbial community structure of the reef-building coral, Porites astreoides. [PDF]
With the continued and unprecedented decline of coral reefs worldwide, evaluating the factors that contribute to coral demise is of critical importance. As coral cover declines, macroalgae are becoming more common on tropical reefs.

Therapeutic Uses of Red Macroalgae [PDF]
Red Seaweed “Rhodophyta” are an important group of macroalgae that include approximately 7000 species. They are a rich source of structurally diverse bioactive constituents, including protein, sulfated polysaccharides, pigments, polyunsaturated fatty acids, vitamins, minerals, and phenolic compounds with nutritional, medical, and industrial importance.

Microphytobenthos and benthic macroalgae determine sediment organic matter composition in shallow photic sediments [PDF]
Microphytobenthos and benthic macroalgae play an important role in system metabolism within shallow coastal bays. However, their independent and interactive influences on sediment organic matter (SOM) are not well understood.

Photosynthesis rates of seagrass and macroalgae measured in situ by pulse-amplitude modulated (PAM) fluorometry [PDF]
Photosynthesis, a fundamental process, sustains coastal vegetated ecosystem services. Pulse-Amplitude Modulated fluorometry was a non-invasive method used to assess the photosynthetic efficiency of seagrass and macroalgae in dynamic coastal environments.
