Samples of the seaweed collected will be examined in consultation with Canadian Kelp Resources Ltd. for their economic potential as exotic types of tea. Species that show promise as ingredients in tea products will also be analyzed for the presence of contaminants....


Geographic Distribution, Physiological Adaptations, Systematics and Ecology of Stream Macroalgae in North America
Principal Investigator: Sheath, Robert
Licensed Year(s): 1994 1992
Summary: The researcher and his team will survey streams for macroscopic algae, and relate their distribution to various physical and chemical characteristics, biomes and drainage basins.

As well, a widespread seaweed will be collected for comparison with other populations to d...


Biogenic Bromine Production in Arctic Waters and Ice Algal Physiology and Sea Ice Optics
Principal Investigator: Cota, Glenn
Licensed Year(s): 1994 1993 1992 1991
Summary: Some natural gases in air react with light and can cause ozone depletion near the earth's surface. Some of these gases are produced by marine plants or algae such as seaweeds and the small single-celled plants causing "brown ice". The researchers will find out what marine plants which contain and/or release these materials called "organohalogen gases". This study will help to determine how much ...
