• Effects of wave exposure on population structure, demography, biomass and productivity of the kelp Laminaria hyperborea (2012, background): “Production of Laminaria is typically estimated from the observed maximum biomass of blades in summer (e.g. Borum et al. 2002) or from net changes in individual biomass with age (e.g. Sjøtun & Fredriksen 1995), but these methods may underestimate true primary production.”
• Light and temperature demands of marine benthic microalgae and seaweeds in polar regions (2009, background): “Arctic kelps such as Saccharina latissima, which comprises only 5–10% of the macroalgal biomass, can reach 1–2 g C m-2 year-1 (Borum et al. 2002), while grand estimates for the High Arctic Laminaria solidungula can approach 20 g C m-2 year-1 (Chapman and Lindley 1981), but generally range 6–10 g C m”
• Large-scale shift from sugar kelp (Saccharina latissima) to ephemeral algae along the south and west coast of Norway (2012, background): “Although light requirement is low (Borum et al. 2002), nutrient enrichment and excessive growth of epiphytes, may strongly contribute to crucial light reduction as has been found for seagrasses in nutrient enriched coastal waters (Burkholder et al. 2007).”
• The genus Laminaria sensu lato : recent insights and developments (2008, background): “In Laminaria saccharina from the Arctic, respiration rates decrease under low light conditions, lowering the light compensation point to about 2 mmolm 2 s 1 so that photosynthesis is mostly balanced even during periods of ice cover (Borum et al., 2002).”
