The release of total and dissolved organic carbon from macroalgae and phytoplankton

Creator:

Kawasaki, Nobuyuki

Abstract:

Many phytoplankton and macroalgae release dissolved organic carbon (DOC). Many macroalgae also produce and store secondary metabolites which in some case have been shown to deter their grazers. The metabolites may be released into the surrounding seawater and could inhibit primary production. On the other hand, some phytoplankton can use...

Towards an approach based on resilience for assessing the potential impacts of sea level rise

Creator:

Scalise, Armando Hector

Abstract:

In this paper, I will analyze the nature of these problems and examine how recent approaches to SLRA have dealt with them. In addition, a framework for assessing the potential impacts of sea level rise is proposed, drawing upon the ecological concept of resilience (Holling 1978, 1984).
