Using acid treatment to improve seaweed farming and prevent algae growth

The seaweed farming area in Subei Shoal is gaining attention due to the green tide problem in the Yellow Sea. To tackle this, researchers are looking at using acid treatment in growing seaweed, which could help prevent the green tide by stopping the unwanted growth of green algae. This method is expected to not only improve the health and growth of the seaweed but also enhance its quality. The paper explains how acid treatment works, the types of acids used, and suggests early action to prevent green tide, aiming to make seaweed farming more productive and reduce green tide issues.
