Geophysical Research Letters, 2022 AbstractBlooms and coastal inundations of pelagic Sargassum have caused major problems to coastal communities and ecosystems throughout the tropical Atlantic over the past decade. Understanding Sargassum growth, movement, and mortality is essential to being able to predict and mitigate these events.

Impact of Tropical Cyclones on Pelagic Sargassum
Geophysical Research Letters, 2022 AbstractThe strong proliferation of holopelagic Sargassum in the Tropical Atlantic from 2011, raises many questions on the environmental factors controlling their growth and decay at interannual, seasonal, and intraseasonal scales. In this work, we specifically investigate the response of the Sargassum aggregations to high wind events such as those ...
