The response of seaweeds to environmental stressors can be population-specific, and be
related to the regime of their habitats. To explore the growth and physiological responses of …

The southern coast of Africa is one of the few places in the world where water temperatures
are predicted to cool in the future. This endemism-rich coastline is home to two sister …

Context Range-edge populations persist closer to their physiological thresholds, often
limiting reproductive output. Kelps are foundation species on temperate reefs, but their …

The consequences of a year-round warming scenario on the photosynthetic performance of
kelp species are unknown. In times of global warming, fundamental photosynthesis data are …

The coastal waters of Aotearoa New Zealand (ANZ) are experiencing increasingly frequent,
strong and long-lasting marine heatwaves as a result of long-term ocean warming. Waitati …

Ocean warming and short-term extreme events (eg marine heatwaves) are becoming more
intense and frequent and have had major impacts on temperate marine ecosystems …

Kelp forests underpin temperate coastlines globally but are declining due to ocean change.
To understand effects of ocean change on kelp forests, knowledge on the full life cycle is …

Kelp (ie large brown macroalgae of the order Laminariales) are important habitat-forming
species in coastal ecosystems. Recently, the key role kelp play as part of an expanding blue …
