Proliferation of sargassum across the tropical Atlantic since 2011 has motivated a range of
forecasting methods. Statistical methods based on basin-scale satellite data are used to …

The oceanographic ecology of pelagic Sargassum, and the means by which these floating
macroalgae thrive in the nutrient-poor waters of the open ocean, have been studied for …

Over the last decade, the Caribbean has seen massive, episodic influxes of pelagic
sargassum negatively impacting coastal ecosystems, people's livelihoods and climate …

Pelagic Sargassum species have been known for centuries in the Sargasso Sea of the North
Atlantic Ocean. In 2011, a new area concentrating high biomass of these brown algae …

Pelagic Sargassum macroalgal rafts in the North Atlantic support sessile and motile
epifauna that attract ecologically and economically important migratory organisms. Three …

Pelagic Sargassum is a buoyant macroalgae that forms rafts at the ocean surface and
serves as a biologically rich habitat for hundreds of diverse marine species. Since 2011 …

The holopelagic macroalgae sargassum has proliferated across the tropical Atlantic since
2011, of consequence for coastal populations from West Africa to the Caribbean with limited …

Massive Sargassum stranding events affect erratically numerous countries from the Gulf of
Guinea to the Gulf of Mexico. Forecasting transport and stranding of Sargassum aggregates …

As the biomass of pelagic Sargassum spp. increased across the North Atlantic equatorial
recirculation region from 2011 onwards, massive rafts of sargasso appeared in the Western …

A cost-effective particle-tracking model was implemented to study the transport and landing
of sargassum in the Mexican Caribbean. Sensitivity analyses were performed to quantify the …
