The #kelp Pterygophora californica at Muir Beach, Marin Co, Calif for #phycologyfriday. This species is typical in the subtidal kelp forest understory but at some sites can be abundant in the low intertidal too.

I don't think I've done #PhycologyFriday before - but it seems like the right day, and right hashtag, to admire the University of Zurich's @UZH_en's "Blue Cow".

A nice spot to meet someone, and some algae (and zooplankton) to learn about as you do!

ZOMG ZOMG ZOMG!

This #phycologyfriday I present to you:

✨✨Pedro Pascal as #kelp ✨✨

🧵First up, Pedro as #BullKelp (N. leutkeana). This sp. forms #kelpforests across the NE Pacific & thrives in high energy rocky areas. Its easily spotted by its distinct surface canopy & "mermaids bladder"!

Seapalms, Postelsia palmaeformis, along the Mendocino County coast in Calif. This annual #kelp species thrives on wave swept rocky shorelines in the northeast Pacific. Large waves help remove #intertidal competitors, namely mussels, allowing the alga to colonize popular real estate on the shore. #PhycologyFriday

29 August - 1 September 2023

7th International Coralline Algae Meeting
Codium setchellii for #phycologyfriday from the Marin County, Calif coast. I love photographing this unusual green #alga! #seaweed #Chlorophyta
Sandeels on the move. Atmospheric background of Halydris siliquosa, Saccharina latissima and Chorda phylum, among others, for #phycologyFriday. From a weekend snorkeling scapade to Little Killary, co. Galway this summer.

Ok it seems like the #ScienceTwitterMigration is in full swing! Now where are the #algae #phycology people? And because it's #PhycologyFriday, here's a veritable forest of #Lemanea (summer 2022)
