“…Recently, microalgae are considered as a technically and economically viable alternative energy resource having advantages such as: (1) perennial production capability; (2) appropriate land use and growth conditions; and (3) high oil content. Efforts have been made to select particular species, increase of scale of production, and technical improvement of production [11][12][13]. Botryococcus braunii (B. braunii), a hydrocarbon producing microalga, is expected to be a promising material for the next-generation energy source due to its exceedingly high oil productivity.…”

Abstract:Microalgae is a promising next-generational energy. In this research, we focus on oil-extracted Botryococcus braunii residues collected by adding polysilicato-iron (PSI) as a flocculant followed by carbonization under argon atmosphere. We conducted carbonization at various temperatures as a first attempt to reveal the fundamental properties of the carbonization process of the microbes. The carbons thus obtained by heat treatment at 900 • C present a unique magnetic behavior due to reduced magnetite (Fe 3 O 4 ) inclusion, which is produced from polysilicato iron (Fe 2 O 3 ) during the heating process. Experimental results suggest that this carbonic material can be applied as a heavy metal-capturing carbon and magnetic porous substrate catalyst. The effective use of the waste may open a new avenue for an energy-microbiology-materials system.

“…The CLSM images of the periphytic biofilms developed under different light and temerperature conditions on day 30 (blue, pink, and green colors present algae, Cyanobacteria, and EPS, respectively). found to be optimum for the growth of most algae species, both lower and higher temperature restricts their growth and can even be fatal to certain algae species (Butterwick et al, 2005;Singh and Singh, 2015). For treatments under the same temperature but different illumination conditions, higher PAR favored the accretion of the biofilms.…”

“…This is not surprising given that temperature is a key factor influencing reproduction (Pankhurst, 1997;Byrne et al, 2009), survival (Pepin, 1991;Eggert, 2012), growth (Morrongiello and Thresher, 2015;Singh and Singh, 2015) and behavior (Biro et al, 2010;Allan et al, 2015) of many marine species. Satellite derived sea surface temperature (SST) measurements are widely used as a proxy for water temperature (Block et al, 2011;Brodie et al, 2015), due to readily available data, broad spatial coverage and long-time series (albeit at low spatial resolution) in the absence of in situ recordings (which are often at short time scales and spatially limited).…”

Assessing the Use of Area- and Time-Averaging Based on Known De-correlation Scales to Provide Satellite Derived Sea Surface Temperatures in Coastal Areas

Satellite derived sea surface temperatures (SSTs) are often used as a proxy for in situ water temperatures, as they are readily available over large spatial and temporal scales. However, contamination of satellite images can prohibit their use in coastal areas. We compared in situ temperatures to SST foundation (∼10 m depth) at 31 sites inshore of the East Australian Current (EAC), the dynamic western boundary current of the south Pacific gyre, using an area averaging approach to overcome coastal contamination. Varying across-and along-shelf distances were used to area average SST measurements and de-correlation time scales were used to gap fill data. As the EAC is typically anisotropic (dominant along-shore flow) the choice of across-shelf distances influenced the correlation with in situ temperatures more than along-shelf distances. However, the "optimal" distances for both measurements were within known de-correlation length scales. Incorporating both SST area and time averaging (based on de-correlation time scales) produced data for an average of 96% of days that in situ loggers were deployed, compared to 27% (52%) without (with) area averaging. Temperature differences between the in situ data and SSTs varied depending on time of year, with higher differences in the austral summer when daily in situ temperatures can range by up to 4.20 • C. The differences between the in situ and SST measurements were, however, significant with or without area averaging (t-test: p-values < 0.05). Nevertheless, when using the area averaging approaches SSTs were only an average of ∼1.05 • C different from in situ temperatures and less than in situ temperature fluctuations. Linear mixed models revealed that latitude, distance to the coast and nearest estuary did not influence the difference between the in situ and satellite data as much as the water depth. This study shows that using de-correlation length and time scales to inform how to process satellite data can overcome contamination and missing data thereby greatly increasing the coverage and utility of SST data, particularly in coastal areas.
