The alkenone paleothermometer, U37K′, has been used to estimate past sea surface temperatures (SST) for nearly forty years. Despite its popularity, U37K′ is conventionally limited water between 5 and 28.5 °C. At both low high temperature ranges [0–8; >24 °C], displays nonlinear behavior significant scattering, leading major uncertainties in reconstructed SSTs. With data from 171 sediments acros...

In the quest of finding local strains marine ciliates that can be easily cultured under a broad range salinity and fed with microalgae, Fabrea salina Henneguy, 1890 Condylostoma sp. Bory de St. Vincent, 1826 were for 22 days in small volumes at temperature 16–18 °C flagellated microalgae. F. presented clear preference 40 ppt Condylostoma. 20 ppt. Rhodomonas Hill Wetherbee, 1989 most efficient f...

Pinctada fucata martensii and P. maxima are two main traditional pearl oyster species that can produce seawater pearls. Our previous study showed a higher clearance rate (CR) growth performance in f. than fed with Isochrysis galbana . In this study, the juveniles of sizes (large small) were six different microalgae diets [ I. ( I ), Platymonas subcordiformis P Chaetoceros muelleri I, I+P, I+C, ...

The importance of microalgal lipids for the survival and growth shrimp postlarvae has been recognized in a range studies. Microalgae with fast rates high levels polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) are considered vital to maximise production minimise cost larviculture. lipid content acid composition microalgae used varies substantially between algal classes species being Vietnam. This study aims ...
