Microbiome changes in a stranding simulation of the holopelagic macroalgae Sargassum natans and Sargassum fluitans [PDF]
Ocean and Coastal Research, 2023 Abstract Holopelagic Sargassum has been causing massive strandings on tropical Atlantic Ocean shorelines. After stranding, the algal biomass starts to decompose, releasing nutrients, toxic gases, and potentially introduces exogenous macro and microorganisms. Describing the microbiome associated with Sargassum, and how it changes after stranding

Ecology, Volume 103, Issue 12, December 2022., 2022 Abstract The outcomes of species interactions can vary greatly in time and space with the outcomes of some interactions determined by priority effects. On coral reefs, benthic algae rapidly colonize disturbed substrate. In the absence of top‐down control from herbivorous fishes, these algae can inhibit the recruitment of reef‐building corals, leading ...

Climate-sargassum interactions across scales in the tropical Atlantic
PLOS Climate, 2023 The impacts of climate change on ecosystems are highly uncertain but potentially profound. One such impact may be the emergence of extensive mats of seaweed (macroalgae), due to the extraordinary proliferation of pelagic sargassum species, in the ...

Physics-informed laboratory estimation of Sargassum windage [PDF]
Physics of Fluids 35, 111702 (2023), 2023 A recent Maxey--Riley theory for \sarg raft motion, which models a raft as a network of elastically interacting finite-size, buoyant particles, predicts the carrying flow velocity to be given by the weighted sum of the water and air velocities $(1-\alpha)\mathbf{v} + \alpha \mathbf w$.
