Marine organisms constitute approximately one-half of the total global biodiversity, being rich reservoirs of structurally diverse biofunctional components. The potential of cyanobacteria, micro- and macroalgae as sources of antimicrobial, antitumoral, anti-inflammatory, and anticoagulant compounds has been reported extensively. Nonetheless, biological activities of marine fauna and flora of th...

Abstract Wrack accumulations are a source of nutrients on sandy beaches and host invertebrate species, increasing local biodiversity. The distribution these important varies in space time depending the environmental conditions composition species that wrack. Species spatiotemporal variability wrack remain poorly understood some regions. In this study, we evaluated biomass diversity four norther...
