Cultivating microalgae in desert conditions: Evaluation of the effect of light‐temperature summer conditions on the growth and metabolism of nannochloropsis qu130 by Jabri, Hareb Al

“…In the Qatar desert the temperature varies widely, typically between 10° and 45 °C There are also wide variations in light intensity, with values of over 1500 μmolhν.m−2s−1 in summer. A study of the effects of these thermal and light fluctuations is therefore essential for large‐scale outdoor production systems, especially during the summer when temperature and light fluctuations are at their highest. …”
