• Ecology of Central European Non-Forest Vegetation: Coastal to Alpine, Natural to Man-Made Habitats (2017, background): “The best known organism in this community is Chlamydomonas nivalis, or red snow, which occurs across the globe in areas with permanent snow, and periodically turns large areas the colour of watermelon (Remias et al. 2005).”
• Insights into the biology and phylogeny of Chloromonas polyptera (Chlorophyta), an alga causing orange snow in Maritime Antarctica (2013, background): “This would go along with the report that the high astaxanthin content of Chlamydomonas nivalis causes much lower de-epoxidation ratios of 0.27 or lower (Remias et al. 2005), measured in samples taken from highly irradiated alpine snow surfaces.”
