Finding Plankton: A Marine Science Scavenger Hunt for Local Communities
Abstract At a time of increasing political polarization and rapidly accelerating climate change, it is important to build public knowledge and empathy toward nature to foster behavioral changes; however, addressing a knowledge deficit can be insufficient to affect these changes.

A Review of Marine Algae as a Sustainable Source of Antiviral and Anticancer Compounds
Biopolymers, such as polysaccharides, polyphenols, alkaloids, and terpenoids, found in marine algae exhibit antiviral and anticancer properties. These compounds can inhibit viral replication, induce apoptosis in cancer cells, and enhance the immune ...

Biochemical Studies on Marine Algae-II
The relation between the chemical constituents of Porphyra yezoensis and environmental factors was examined by dipping frozen laver nets every month and harvesting the fronds after one month at many culture grounds in the Kuwana district for two successive seasons, from December 1967 to March 1968 and from November 1968 to March 1969.

Abstract The demand for efficient image sorting methods has increased due to technological advancements that enable more intensive phytoplankton monitoring. Both statistical and machine learning algorithms can misidentify algal taxa in taxonomically diverse samples, in which phytoplankton morphology and image traits can vary.

Refining techniques for high‐frequency monitoring of chlorophyll a fluorescence in estuarine systems
Abstract Concentrations of the photosynthetic pigment chlorophyll a are commonly used as a proxy for phytoplankton biomass in aquatic systems. Traditional methods for extracting chlorophyll a in discrete samples limit measurement frequency, while in situ sensor technology provides high frequency chlorophyll a fluorescence measurements at a more ...

To explore the changes in the stinky components and the correlation with the flavor characteristics of kelp after deodorization, the headspace-solid-phase microextraction-gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (HS-SPME-GC-MS) method was combined with ...

Abstract Tailwaters are ubiquitous and highly managed ecosystems whose food webs often rely disproportionately on autochthonous energy. In situ continuous dissolved oxygen data are increasingly being used to estimate gross primary productivity and ecosystem respiration in rivers, but this approach is complicated in tailwaters, where upriver ...

A classified list of the algae which have been recorded from Tasmania and the adjacent islands. This Record is based on the labours of many workers. Probably the first Tasmanian seaweed to receive a scientific name was the largest, though not the longest, of them all, the giant kelp, Sarcophycus potatorum, gathered during the survey of the Huon River ...

Abstract Sediment traps, often used in tandem with preservatives or poisons, are widely used for the collection of particulate organic matter (POM), providing insight into the source to sink mechanisms that shape major biogeochemical cycles and sedimentary carbon sequestration.
