*Pterygophora* is an amazing #kelp species for many reasons, but one of my favorite examples is its use by bald eagles as nesting material. #PhycologyFriday #MarineLife 🌊🦑🪶 esajournals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/...

"Like something from a sci-fi movie, I’ve seen swathes of #sargassum #seaweed spreading across the tropical Atlantic, with mats reaching depths of 7 metres and spanning hundreds of square miles."

PML's Dr Fidai on how blooms of seaweed are increasing globally: theconversation.com/drastic-seaw...
Drastic seaweed growth threatens marine life and fishing – but also offers opportunities
Floating seaweed can travel long distances to new territories and accumulate in large mats or wash ashore in huge quantities.

It might be Friday 13th but we’re feeling very lucky here at Stromness Museum. Yesterday we hosted a fantastic talk by Dr Jane Pottas on herbaria and algaria, which included seaweed images from our current Natural History digitisation project, which featured in this week’s The Orcadian newspaper!

Excellent work on geographic variation in responses of seaweeds to marine heatwaves! #PhycologyFriday #MarineLife 🌊🦑
Check out our new paper exploring how giant kelp (Macrocystis pyrifera) sporophytes from populations across Aotearoa New Zealand respond to marine heatwaves in simulated experiments. We find general similar sensitivities that tend towards similar thermal tolerances across large geographic areas.
