“…Regions located in the mid‐latitudes zone generally have only one growing season and this is not favorable for the implementation of outdoor microalgae cultivation facilities. As for the sub‐Antarctic (55° to 60° N and S), Antarctic (60° to 75° S), subarctic (55° to 60° N), arctic (60° to 75° N) and polar (75° to 90° N and S) zones, it is clear that they would be able to support only psychrophilic and psychrotolerant microalgae cultivation facilities that inhabit extremely cold environments 37 . Lastly, holistically, the geographic examination of potential sites for microalgae cultivation involves, beyond climate, parameters such as the physical suitability of the site, the availability of land and inputs, access to transport infrastructure and viable manpower 38 .…”

BACKGROUND Identifying geographic locations with favorable climates for large‐scale openwork microalgae cultivation is a trend. In light of that, what we propose in this study is to map the performance of photobioreactors for microalgae culture in the subtropical (25° to 35° N and S) and mid‐latitudes (35° to 55° N and S) climate zones. Twenty geographic locations were chosen to represent 14 types of climates in the four seasons of the year. The study is a latitudinal, climatological and seasonal assessment. RESULTS The results showed that the subtropical climatic zone presents better conditions for microalgae growth with higher levels of biomass productivity and lipid productivity. The highest annual average biomass productivity (0.210 g L−1 d−1) and annual average lipid productivity (0.025 g L−1 d−1) were recorded in a simulation of hot desert climate (BWh). The winter season presents a minor potential for microalgae cultivation. CONCLUSION The results of this study shed light on the impact of subtropical and mid‐latitudes climate zone and seasons of the year on the performance of photoautotrophic microalgae‐based processes. © 2023 Society of Chemical Industry (SCI).

“…With time, water temperature increases allow greater accumulation of benthic biomass also comprising of green algae. Despite this, cyanobacterial and diatom biomasses are typically constantly higher compared to green algae due to their adaptive mechanisms to grow in different temperatures (Michelutti et al, 2003;Dasauni et al, 2022). In contrast, green algae tend to occur with variable biomasses depending on water temperature (Rautio et al, 2011;Agrawal, 2012).…”

This study investigated the spatial variation in total benthic algal biomass and within cyanobacteria, green algae, and diatoms in sub-Arctic ponds. Additionally to more widely used explanatory variables, snowmelt and ice duration were considered as their importance on algal communities is poorly understood. The data comprised algal biomasses from 45 sub-Arctic ponds in the Finnish Lapland. A generalized linear model and hierarchical partitioning were used to identify the significantly influential variables. Cyanobacteria were the most abundant algal group. Trace elements (e.g. Fe, Al, and Mn) were the most significant explanatory variable group in explaining algal biomasses. Macronutrients apart from K were found insignificant in all models. There were positive relationships between some algal biomasses indicating no strong competition between them. Snow and ice variables were found insignificant for all models, but they could have an important secondary role on algal communities. The results highlight the importance of trace elements in shaping algal biomasses in sub-Arctic ponds and thus their wider use in research can be advocated to better understand the productivity of nutrient poor and acidic waters in sub-Arctic regions. Focussing on benthic algal biomasses and the chemical composition of sub-Arctic freshwaters provides important information on the aquatic primary production.
