#2939 - 2016 Day 17: Basically, if you're going to slither all over something, be careful not to leave footprints. Something has left this trail in the algae on one of our kayaks.
Note to self: clean kayaks and use them!!

Added Dajia Shallow Drop Handlebars, Elkhide Covers, Low Flange PBP front wheel, and Fairweather Algae 28mm Tires.
The substance on these branches is 'Trentepohlia', a genus of filamentous green chlorophyte algae which lives on tree trunks and wet logs. The strong brownish-orange color of the filaments, which mask the green of the chlorophyll, is caused by the presence of large quantities of carotenoid pigments. I noticed this unusual algae growing on some Monterey Cypress trees at the top of a high bluff overlooking Woodcrest Beach on the Pacific Coast in Half Moon Bay California.
They're not very good pictures, but I loved the patterns that this created with lots of layers of algae in perfectly clear water
In he late spring, the stream has dried up and all that is left are algae filled pools. At first when we started the hike, it looked completely dry. That would have been disappointing because the description in Afoot and Afield indicated that there would be a pool with a waterfall along the hike.

Pebbles of various sizes line the bottom of thie shallow and beautiful section of the Bow River, with gently rippled water and golden morning sunlight creating a lovely abstract effect as they flowed over the rocks.
I thought this shot was particularly cool as a patch of algae had built up around one of the larger pebbles, providing wonderful contrast of both color and texture to the surrounding rocks and water!
Algae, possibly gloeocapsa, at 600x. Found in a sample from an artificial pond in the park near 1st Street and Chesterfield in North Vancouver, BC, Canada.
Toward Dunwich, there were several small pools that had formed a short distance from the beach.
There is lots of algae in these pools & the presence of it, makes for some very vivid colours.
I am growing algae. What I can't figure out is the perfectly straight line of demarkation between "algae" and "no algae" on the back of the tank. The algae just stops, six inches from the top. Not a gradual cessation, either. A perfectly straight and sudden boundary. I can't think of any explanation. If you have one, I'd love to hear it!
Researchers maintain single-species algal cultures under a biosafety hood, equipped with a sterilizing UV light and small gas burner
Located in Shimen District, New Taipei City, Laomei Green Reefs derive from volcanic matters of Datun Mountains. After a long time of sea erosions, their soft parts are gone, leaving the hard compounds that look like ditches. As waves hit the reef surfaces under northeast monsoons, green algae such as sea lettuce and “green hair” slowly grow. The result is the amazing seasonal scene of Laomei Green Reefs.
Algae grows on various solid surface and they were found on top of the Zinc oxide surface

Volvox is a spherical colony of algae, that moves "rolling" through the water of some ponds and ditches. Every onecel alga has a long whip wire. They are not very common but sometimes wide spread. Inside the globe are new colonies formed. After a while the big one burst open en releases the "newborns"
Volvox is een kolonie algjes die samen een bol vormen en zich met zweepdraadjes rollend door het water bewegen van sommige sloten en plassen. Verrukkelijk om te bekijken.
In de bol worden nieuwe kolonies gevormd die vrijkomen als de "ouder" openbarst.
Algae Bloom off the Coast of Estonia on July 16th, 2002. Cyanobacteria can be found in almost every terrestrial and aquatic habitat. With the appropriate conditions these can bloom and be seen from space as blue-green patches that swirl following surface currents. Lines cutting across the image are the traces of ships. Factors that lead to these blooms include low winds, increasing temperatures, and nutrients such as phosphorus (often byproducts of fertilizer runoff along the rivers). These blooms can be toxic and are often monitored from air and space.
