Application of hydrogen peroxide as brown tide bloom control agent
… been reported in other countries recently, is brown tide bloom. The causal organism is a minute pel agophyte (cell diameter ~- 2 um) Aureococcus anophagefferens. The brown tide bloom has been responsible for the severe ecological damage and economic loss (e.g. shellfishery) in the affected …

Interannual Differences in Nutrient Dynamics During a Brown Tide Bloom (<i>Aureococcus anophagefferens</i>) and the Interaction of <i>A. anophagefferens</i> with Heterotrophic Bacteria
… of <em>Aureococcus anophagefferens</em> (Brown Tides) in Chincoteague Bay were observed over a six-year period (2002–2007) during which interannual differences in nitrogen and carbon uptake and concentrations of dissolved constituents were compared at two sites, one in Maryland and the …

An Investigation of Dissolved Organic Matter in a Shallow Coastal Bay Subject to <i>Aureococcus anophagefferens</i> Blooms
… the pelagophyte responsible for brown tide blooms, was identified in Chincoteague Bay in 1997 and has “bloomed” there since at least 1998. <em>Aureococcus anophagefferens </em>is capable of using dissolved organic nitrogen (DON) and dissolved organic carbon (DOC) substrates to …

A study of the New York / New Jersey coastal water : bio-optical characteristics of the harbor estuary and the effects of heavy metals on brown tide alga of the bight
… and the NY/NJ Harbor Estuary, and in the former, brown tides (Aureococcus anophagefferens) were first observed in 1985 becoming a more serious water quality problem over the last 25 years. The influence of micronutrients, namely trace metals, on A. anophagefferens that are widespread in coastal …

Molecular insights into the niche of harmful brown tides
Recurrent brown tide blooms caused by the harmful alga Aureococcus anophagefferens have decimated coastal ecosystems and shellfisheries along the Eastern U.S. and South Africa. The exact mechanisms controlling bloom formation, sustenance, and decline are unclear, however bottom-up factors such as …

Microbial food web interactions in two Long Island embayments
Phytoplankton mortality (herbivory) and bacterivory were examined experimentally in West Neck Bay and Coecles Harbor, Long Island, NY from April through September, 1998. Small algae (<5 μm diameter) dominated phytoplankton communities in both ecosystems throughout the summer, and zooplankton were …
