An international team of researchers has studied the coralline algae fossils that lived on the last coral reefs of the Mediterranean Sea between 7.24 and 5.3 million years ago. Mediterranean algae and ...

A habitat-building coralline algae that provides a vital nursing ground for marine species and an important blue carbon ...

Coralline algae, a group of calcified red algae, play a critical role in marine ecosystems by contributing to reef stability and acting as ecosystem engineers. Taxonomically, these algae are ...

During a recent cruise to the Southern Line Islands, I, along with other researchers from Scripps Institution of Oceanography, UC San Diego, had the opportunity to sample coralline algae across this ...

Years of almost non-stop marine heat waves are stressing New Zealand's kelp forests. But as we show in our new research, ongoing ocean warming is only one of several threats to these unique and ...

Researchers took a close look at what seem to be strands of pink bubblegum smeared on rocks off of the British Columbian coast - coralline algae - and discovered a cornucopia of species. The ...

Marine organisms in the Mediterranean Sea experience the highest temperatures, salinities and oligotrophic conditions in its easternmost part along the eastern shores of the Levantine basin. Over the ...

Coralline red algae have existed for 130 million years, in other words since the Cretaceous Period, the time of the dinosaurs. At least this was the established view of palaeontologists all over the ...

Giant waves have been crashing on the lava coastline in Kauai for millions of years. These waves break down the lava rock over time but we still have nice flat lava reefs we surf over. Why aren’t our ...

Researchers have revealed that most coralline algae experience negative effects from ocean acidification. Analysis of previous studies showed that changes in ocean chemistry can lead to declines in ...
