Identifying thermally tolerant bull kelp (Nereocystis luetkeana) source populations for restoration under climate change

open access: yesJournal of Phycology, EarlyView.
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.

Quantifying Inbreeding Depression in Nereocystis luetkeana

open access: yes, 2022
Recent Landsat satellite imagery has documented significant decline in Bull Kelp forests, Nereocystis luetkeana, in regions of northern California, Washington, and Oregon due to climate change and marine heatwaves.

Macroalgae respond to consumer‐mediated nutrient cycling in a temperate ecosystem

open access: yesJournal of Phycology, EarlyView.
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

Global Kelp Biogeography: Past, Present and Future

open access: yesJournal of Biogeography, Volume 53, Issue 10, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Aim We review the past, present and future biogeography of kelps (Order Laminariales), integrating recent advances in phylogeography, population genomics and species distribution modelling to outline the key patterns and processes relevant to kelp biogeography. Location Global. Taxa Kelp (Order Laminariales).

Effect of tidal currents and tidal stage on estimates of bed size in the kelp Nereocystis luetkeana [PDF]

open access: yesMarine Ecology Progress Series, 2008
Aerial or overhead photography is a technique commonly used to measure spatiotemporal variability in surface canopy kelps. To evaluate potential biases in this technique, we used elevated (shore-based) oblique angle photography coupled with in situ measurements of currents and tides to sample 4 independent Nereocystis luetkeana beds at sites adjacent ...

Examining the reproductive success of bull kelp ( Nereocystis luetkeana , Phaeophyceae, Laminariales) in climate change conditions

open access: yesJournal of Phycology, 2023
Abstract Climate change is affecting marine ecosystems in many ways, including raising temperatures and leading to ocean acidification. From 2014 to 2016, an extensive marine heat wave extended along the west coast of North America and had devastating effects on numerous species, including bull kelp (

Not All Children Are the Same: Differences in the Microbiome Assembly During Early Development of Seaweeds

open access: yesEnvironmental Microbiology, Volume 28, Issue 9, September 2026.
Understanding how early microbiomes assemble is central to explaining the ecology and evolution of host–microbe interactions. Comparing three macroalgal species, we show that hosts differ markedly in how they retain parental bacteria and filter environmental taxa during their early development.

Macroalgae and Bivalve Interactions: A Review of Trophic and Feeding Studies to Assess the Contribution of Macroalgal Detritus to Bivalves

open access: yesReviews in Aquaculture, Volume 18, Issue 4, September 2026.
ABSTRACT There is growing interest in the co‐culture of macroalgae and filter‐feeding bivalves due to anticipated trophic benefits that may enhance the productivity of both organisms. Detritus from cultured macroalgae has the potential to supplement bivalve diets, yet few studies have directly examined this relationship in co‐culture systems.
