Curvature-guided motility of microalgae in geometric confinement [PDF]
Microorganisms, such as bacteria and microalgae, often live in habitats consisting of a liquid phase and a plethora of interfaces. The precise ways in which these motile microbes behave in their confined environment remain unclear. Using experiments, Brownian dynamics simulations, and analytical theory, we study the motility of a single Chlamydomonas ...

Physiology and metabolism of eukaryotic microalgae involved in aquatic photosymbioses. [PDF]
Summary Symbiosis between eukaryotic microalgae and heterotrophic hosts is a widespread, phylogenetically convergent, and ecologically important phenomenon in aquatic ecosystems. Partners include taxonomically diverse microalgae interacting with multicellular or unicellular hosts in marine or freshwater environments.

Temporal scaling of the growth dependent radiative properties of microalgae [PDF]
The radiative properties of microalgae are basic parameters for analyzing light field distribution in photobioreactors (PBRs). With the growth of microalgae cell, their radiative properties will vary with growth time due to accumulation of pigment and lipid, cell division and metabolism.
