马尾藻属的浮游海藻种类正在大西洋中扩散。得益于使其所属的马尾藻属得名的气囊，大洋性海藻种类漂浮马尾藻（S. natans）和长茎马尾藻（S. fluitans）在海洋中自由漂浮。在本期的第83页，王等人（1）报告称，这些海藻的斑块和条带已经生长并扩散穿过加勒比海，横跨北大西洋赤道地区，到达非洲西海岸和几内亚湾，形成了作者所称的大西洋马尾藻大带。其他马尾藻种类，比如鼠尾藻（S. muticum）（2）和铜藻（S. horneri）（3），最近其分布范围也有所扩大，但它们是有根的，可能是通过贝类运输和船舶压舱水传播的。王等人所指出的主要变化是由自由漂浮的种类造成的。
Floating Sargassum seaweed species are spreading in the Atlantic Ocean Thanks to the gas vesicles that give the Sargassum genus its name, the open-ocean seaweed species S. natans and S. fluitans float freely in the ocean. On page 83 of this issue, Wang et al. (1) report that patches and lines of these seaweeds have grown and spread through the Caribbean and across the north equatorial Atlantic to the west coast of Africa and the Gulf of Guinea, forming what the authors call the great Atlantic Sargassum belt. Other species of Sargassum, such as S. muticum (2) and S. horneri (3), have also increased their range recently but are rooted and are probably being spread through shellfish shipments and ship ballast water. It is the freely floating species that are providing the major changes noted by Wang et al.
