Seaweeds- amazing underwater plants, glowing weeds and seaweeds pretending to be a rock!

Episode 39: Seaweeds Seaweeds are the fascinating foundation of life along the rocky shore, yet they are often overlooked. These organisms play a vital role in coastal ecosystems and have some unusual attributes of their own, including beautiful iridescence and seaweeds that incorporate limestone as a defense. In this episode, Charles delves into the science of seaweed, uncovering how these rootless marine algae form habitats and serve as the base of the food web for countless tiny shore species. Seaweeds may seem like slippery growths on rocks, but their unique structures and vibrant colours—green, brown, and red—reveal much about their types and roles in the ecosystem. Despite covering just 0.1% of the ocean, seaweeds significantly support marine biodiversity, transforming the shore into a dynamic habitat.
