Ulva prolifera green-tide outbreaks and their environmental impact in the Yellow Sea, China

Abstract: The Ulva prolifera green tides in the Yellow Sea, China, which have been occurring since 2007, are a serious environmental problem attracting worldwide attention. Despite extensive research, the outbreak mechanisms have not been fully understood. Comprehensive analysis of anthropogenic and natural biotic and abiotic factors reveals that human activities, regional physicochemical conditions and algal physiological characteristics as well as ocean warming and biological interactions (with microorganism or other … Show more

“…Porphyra) yezoensis farms in the Yellow Sea (Fan et al 2015;Song et al 2018). The decomposition of green tides can result in hypoxia and acidification, induce red tides and have long lasting effects on the coastal carbon cycle and ecosystem health (reviewed in Zhang et al 2019).…”

“…Bloom‐forming species in the intertidal zone are poised to exploit changes in environmental conditions through rapid regulation of production. Macroalgal blooms in the intertidal zone have disproportionately large ecosystem effects because of the intensity of primary production per unit area in the biotically diverse land–sea interface (Aires et al 2019; Barnes 2019; Zhang et al 2019). The shifting ratios of resources, warming, and more acidified oceans may change the species composition of coastal ecosystems to favor noncalcifying phototrophs and animals over calcifying species (Wootton et al 2008; Koch et al 2013) and weedy species over long lived ones.…”

“…For example, the 2008 Yellow Sea shade green tide outbreak induced by marine raft aquaculture had a negative impact on the Olympic sailing event and led to the loss of RMB 1.3 billion. This serious environmental catastrophe stemmed largely from the environmental pressure environmental pressure caused by the increasing number of marine raft aquaculture areas [2]. The distribution and number of marine raft aquaculture areas reflect the development status of the fishery as well as the quality of the water environment.…”
