During the month of July 2024, we sampled transects of F.vesiculosus as a screen during the ebb part of a tidal cycle, with repeated measurements of chlorophyll fluorescence and spectral reflectance. We have differentiated different parts of the thallus. The results are very promising and help us to refine the sampling methodology, which we will apply in the near future to clarify the relationships between composition, PTE concentration and ecophysiological variables.

Led by Antón Vázquez-Arias, we collected F.vesiculosus for transplants at 22 locations in Galicia, using automatic samplers. Preliminary results will soon reveal the relationship between PTEs in algae and water.
