A study last year strengthened the link between recovering sea otter populations and the long-term health of kelp forests – the towering brown algae that provide food and shelter for thousands of ...

Kelp may be one of the first species to show how coastal ecosystems will respond to the L.A. fires. These forests of fast-growing brown algae provide food and habitat for hundreds of marine ...

The rich resources of Pacific kelp forests helped humans populate the Americas. Now depleted by as much as 95 percent, they need our help to recover.

The combination of organic sea kelp, blue-green algae, and red algae provides a natural source of iodine, trace minerals, and amino acids, which are essential for a healthy thyroid. We appreciate ...

they in turn maintained the health of kelp forests—dense groups of brown algae that are rich in biodiversity and provide shelter to many species. Estes, University of British Columbia researcher ...

Kelp forests tower above the ocean floor, with the large brown algae providing food and shelter for thousands of species. However, they are threatened by storms, pollution, warming waters, and ...

“But there are huge implications for the coast.” Forests of kelp, a fast-growing brown algae, provide food and habitat for hundreds of marine species and absorb greenhouse gases that might ...
