This project investigates the ecology of kelp forests in Norway, focusing on the species Saccharina latissima. It aims to understand the interactions between kelp and its associated microbial communities to promote sustainable cultivation practices in response to environmental changes.
Kelp forests are known globally as hotspots for macroscopic biodiversity.
Norway has Europe’s largest population of kelp having a long tradition of exploiting wild populations of this natural resource.
There is currently a lot of interest in the species, Saccharina latissima, to develop Norway’s kelp industry through large scale cultivation at sea.
Kelp forests are however vulnerable to climate change, overharvesting and biofouling by epiphytes.
Due to the importance of kelp to Norway’s bioecono…
