BIOenergetic Modeling Approach for Sargassum dynamics – BIOMAS
Understanding and forecasting the proliferation of holopelagic Sargassum in the tropical Atlantic requires progress in modeling the transport and biology of the macroalgae. Current models focus mostly on the transport part and base the biological part on relatively outdated knowledge for Sargassum f
Weeds of Change: Characterizing and Modeling the Sources and Sinks of the “Great Atlantic Sargassum Belt” – Weeds of Change
The brown macroalgal genus Sargassum, the namesake of the Sargasso Sea, also known as the "golden floating rainforest of the Atlantic Ocean", is an essential habitat and refuge for many organisms including endemic species. However, the holopelagic Sargassum species [S. fluitans and S. natans], which
Integrative Approach for Operational Sargassum Stranding Forecasts – SargAlert
The objective of the SargAlert project is to significantly improve the forecasts of the strandings of the invasive algal species Sargassum in the tropical Atlantic Ocean, in the Caribbean Sea and on the Brazilian coast. The synergy between satellite data / ocean transport modeling / in-situ measurem
