Diatoms are ubiquitous and constitute an important group of the phytoplankton community
having a major contribution to the total marine primary production. These microalgae exhibit …

During the last years significant progress was achieved in unraveling molecular
characteristics of the thylakoid membrane of different diatoms. With the present review it is …

Coelastrella sp. grows well in swine wastewater, and could remove nutrients from swine
wastewater. Some typical pollutants such as Zn (II) in swine wastewater might affect the …

Abstract The western Antarctic Peninsula (WAP) is a climatically sensitive region where
foundational changes at the basis of the food web have been recorded; cryptophytes are …

King George Island (KGI, Isla 25 de Mayo) is located within one of the most rapidly warming
regions on Earth at the north-western tip of the Antarctic Peninsula. Since 1991 …

Fucoxanthin has been receiving ever-increasing interest due to its broad health beneficial
effects. Currently, seaweeds are the predominant source of natural fucoxanthin. However …

As the physical environment of the Arctic Ocean shifts seasonally from ice‐covered to open
water, the limiting resource for phytoplankton growth shifts from light to nutrients. To …

Cyanobacterial blooms appear more strongly, constantly and globally, yet the positive effect
of surface solar ultraviolet radiation (UV) on cyanobacterial bloom in natural freshwater …

This chapter reviews the nature of pigment variations in phytoplankton in response to
changes in light regime (irradiance, spectral composition and daylength). These changes …

The effects of iron limitation on photoacclimation to dynamic irradiance were studied in
Phaeocystis antarctica G. Karst. and Fragilariopsis cylindrus (Grunow) W. Krieg. in terms of …
