Qingdao

as a key coastal city in eastern China, its marine industries contribute significant economic and scientific value to the nation.

The marine waters of Qingdao are an integral part of the Yellow Sea ecosystem, with high marine biodiversity. They include plankton, large marine mammals, shallow-water coral reef communities, and organisms in deep-sea hydrothermal zones, forming a complex and well-balanced ecological network.

However, by late June, massive Ulva spore blooms occur: stirred by southern ocean currents, these spores cover extensive sea areas within a lifecycle of only 15 days.

These blooms impact the coastal city annually, causing entangled maritime ropes, foul odors from decomposition, and billions in cleanup costs—including direct losses exceeding 0 RMB

Field investigations have traced these blooms to nori rafts in the Subei Shoal, where Ulva spores—requiring settlement within approximately 2 hours—have optimal conditions for attachment. This highlights the necessity of innovative biological strategies to address spore-driven outbreaks sustainably.

This is why we introduced ——
