Summary: This study proposed a method to prevent the development of Ulva bloom by inactivating the overwintering banks of green algae on Porphyra yezoensis cultivation ropes in February and early March. Chlorine dioxide was used as an algaecide to effectively inhibit the growth of green algae on the ropes, reducing the magnitude of Ulva blooms in the Yellow Sea.

Summary: Green macroalgal blooms have been a continuous issue in the Yellow Sea, with attached Ulva on aquaculture rafts identified as the main source. The use of NaClO solution has proven to be an effective method to control and prevent these blooms, with minimal impact on the marine ecosystem. Further monitoring and evaluation are needed to assess the long-term effectiveness of the NaClO treatment on green tide formation.

In this study, DNA barcoding was used to identify seven distinct species of Ulva from the North-East Atlantic, highlighting a high degree of misidentification in public repositories. Additionally, possible geographical isolation for some species was suggested. The study also extended its analysis to other genera, revealing mislabelled accessions and potential new synonymies.

Summary: Large macroalgal blooms have occurred in the Yellow Sea for the past 13 years, particularly attributed to Yellow Sea green tides. Research suggests that the metabolism of these algal mats alters the inorganic carbonate chemistry and influences the bacterial community composition in diffusive boundary layers. Studies indicate significant diel fluctuations in pH and CO2 in seawaters affected by algal mat metabolism.

Summary: The epiphytic gammarid species, Apohyale sp., plays a significant role in controlling the floating algal biomass in the Yellow Sea Green Tide. The grazing behavior of Apohyale sp. affects the growth rate of algae, potentially leading to positive feedback on the floating algal biomass. Further research is needed to understand the population dynamics of these primary predators and their correlation with the expansion or decline of the Green Tide in the Yellow Sea.

Summary: This paper proposes a semi-automatic method based on the NDVI to extract Yellow Sea green tide using remote sensing images from multiple satellites. The accuracy assessment demonstrates that the method is applicable to most satellites and different environments. The study traces the source of the green tide to Jiangsu Subei shoal and the southeastern Yellow Sea, advancing the tracing time to early April. Growth curve models are employed to predict and monitor the extent and duration of the green tide, with uncertainty estimation. The prediction for 2022 indicates a start date of June 1, dissipation date of August 15, and an accumulative cover area of approximately 1190.90-1191.21 km².

Summary: By analyzing DNA barcoding regions, this study identified 71 Vicia specimens of Eurasian descent. The trnL and ITS2 regions were effective in discriminating the analyzed species, while the rpoC1 region could not identify all selected species due to sequence conservation or missing sequences in GenBank. The combination of DNA barcoding regions is essential for accurate species discrimination within the Vicia genus.

Summary: This study identified U. aragoensis as a constituent species of green tides in the Southern Yellow Sea (SYS) based on molecular data. The study also found that U. aragoensis was more prevalent in micro-propagules cultured from surface seawater during an early-stage green tide in 2021. Comparing gene sequences, tufA and rbcL genes were determined to be the most suitable DNA barcodes for distinguishing U. aragoensis. Haplotype analysis revealed close similarities between floating U. aragoensis and its micro-propagules. This research clarifies the species composition of SYS green tides and provides insights into the relationship between micro-propagules and green tide macroalgae.

Summary: Seaweeds are nutrient-rich and consuming them can provide important health benefits. However, the flavor of seaweed is important for consumer acceptance, and volatile compounds play a key role. This article reviews the extraction methods and composition of volatile compounds from various seaweed species. Research shows that these compounds mainly consist of aldehydes, ketones, alcohols, hydrocarbons, esters, acids, sulfur compounds, furans, and other compounds in small amounts.

Summary: With global warming, golden tides have become frequent off the coasts of China in recent years. This study examines the effects of global warming on the growth and proliferation of Sargassum horneri in the mussel aquaculture area of Gouqi Island. The relationship between algal growth and temperature is analyzed based on the concept of effective accumulated temperature and parameters such as sea surface temperature and growth cycle. The findings suggest that temperature plays a crucial role in the outbreak and extinction of golden tides, and a monitoring system based on winter sea surface temperature changes can be established for early warning.

Summary: Large numbers of Amphipoda feed on floating green tide macroalgae in the Yellow Sea, with Ampithoe valida being the most abundant species in stable and decline periods. Ampithoe valida has a preference for Ulva as a food source. The physiological responses of A. valida to different temperatures, salinities, and pH levels, as well as its feeding potential on Ulva prolifera, were investigated. The study also explored the potential of using A. valida as a biological method to control green tide outbreaks in the Southern Yellow Sea.

Summary: Green tides are a common phenomenon in many sea areas worldwide, with Ulva spp. being the primary cause in China. Human activities and seawater eutrophication are the main factors contributing to the formation of green tides in the Bohai Sea, Yellow Sea, and South China Sea. This study examined the shedding rate of green tide algae and its correlation with environmental factors in Binhai Harbor. The results showed that although the shedding rate was not correlated with pH, sea surface temperature, or salinity, the environmental conditions were favorable for the proliferation of Ulva meridionalis. Based on these findings, the study highlights the potential ecological risks posed by U. meridionalis in the Yellow Sea due to increased human activities along the coast.
