Here’s hoping seaweeds can adapt fast enough to survive climate change.

New research shows “jumping genes” help seaweeds adapt to climate stress by reshuffling their DNA to survive warming seas and tougher conditions. Fascinating insight into marine resilience and genome flexibility. scitube.io/dr-pilar-gar... doi.org/10.3389/fmars.2025.1592442

Seaweeds play a vital role in coastal ecosystems, providing food, habitat, and carbon storage. As oceans warm and conditions become more unpredictable due to climate change, understanding how seaweeds...

I feel like once I populate the underwater regions with stones and seaweeds and fish, this could become a really sick screensaver

“…The domain protista includes thousands of species, often small, even microscopic…like many amoebas. But not all of them are tiny. For example, giant brown algae seaweeds—also known as kelp—“ THERE I AM GARY THERE I AM!!!! KELP!!!!

" the grass was the country, as the water is the sea. The red of the grass made all the great prairie the colour of wine stains, or of certain seaweeds when they are first washed up. And there was so much motion in it; the whole country seemed, somehow, to be running.”

I'm pretty sure I need more seaweeds. I mean, I only have nori and wakame in my pantry. Clearly not enough.

MY TERRIBLE HANGEUL WRITING SKILL SRTIKES AGAIN!!

There's something sweet about strangers you barely knew celebrating your birthday😂💖Anyway. Here are the images!
A picture of Kalguksu with beef, onion, and seaweed on top. (it's not a cold one...) A bit far from the kalguksu is a spicy bulddak with eggs and crunchy seaweeds. A half-full bowl of gimbap. There is a candle on top. A mango drink with some green-colored ice.

My friend wears my scarf at his waist I give him moonstones He gives me shell & seaweeds He comes from a distant city & I meet him We will plant eggplants & celery together He weaves me cloth Many have brought the gifts I use for his pleasure silk, & green hills & heron the color of dawn My friend walks soft as a weaving on the wind He backlights my dreams He has built altars beside my bed I awake in the smell of his hair & cannot remember his name, or my own

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.

quick sketch of a humanoid alien in a fetal position. it is pale, looks soft and has a great cranium. glowy umbicial cord in cyan attached to the alien, rune-like symbols hover about especially around its hollow socket for an eye - the symbols have sharp angles. canvas roughly shaded and the light is focused mostly on the left of canvas. dark green backdrop accompanied by outline of seaweeds in a lighter shade as well as a muddy vignette.

A sketchy scramble over rocks as the sea threatened to eat us whole. Our risk rewarded with the sight of a secret waterfall. #speirgorm
The Secret Waterfall in South Donegal formed by a partially collapsed seacave and reached by scrambling over colourful rocks dressed in seaweeds of vibrant green, orange, black, and purple. The front of the cave remains forming a large rock lintel/bridge shaped structure. Passing under this stone passageway, the cave gives way to blue sky, revealing a waterfall tumbling from the green grass of the cliff above. The waterfall is reasonably full after a night of heavy rain. It splashes on a beach pebble drift - shiny stones deposited y angry seas at the foot of the cliff.

Pebble beach - I really love the colours here. The strong green and purple of the seaweeds against the browns and blues of the pebbles.

I do have a soft spot for the biogenic beaches that we find on the west coast of Ireland - 'coral' strands composed of lithothamnion algae (painful to walk on in bare feet, incredibly clear water), and a foraminiferal sand (very soft, but sticks!).
A panoramic photo of a pale beach from sand dunes. Some fencing is visible on either side of a path through the dunes. Green patches of vegetation are visible on the dunes and at the top of the beach. The water is grey-blue, and low hills rise in the background yellow and dark grey speckled rock (a metagabbro) in outcrop next to a rock pol with green, red and brown seaweeds. The base of the rock pool is made of fragments of 'coral' - more correctly lithothamnion calcareous algae. Yellow and orange shells and fragments are also visible under the water.

Sea otters help protect kelp forests by snacking on sea urchin populations that would otherwise overgraze kelp.

an abstract mash of dark blacks, deep blue in the upper right corner, orange yellows in the bottom right corner, and a large, mostly straight vertical line of white with a rough textured dark green laid over top of it that covers the left center. in the blue area, there is the impression of pine trees, seaweeds, or some other tall, tapering plant life, coming up from the black below it, as well as narrow, harshly straight lines moving diagonally down from the upper part of the patch of white and dark green. The yellow on the bottom right gives the impression of simultaneous billowing and deep stagnation, of a gaseous or liquid form.
