Phycologists discover what makes some brown algae shimmer and others not

Compartments of consistently sized, tightly packed microspheres are what makes some brown algae shimmer like opal. The Kobe University discovery not only sheds light on the mechanism behind the alga's structural coloration, it is also the first to spot the effect in an order of brown algae other than the two where it was known to occur.
