Abstract: A broad spectrum of events that come under the category of macroalgal blooms are recognized world-wide as a response to elevated levels of eutrophication in coastal areas. In the Yellow Sea of China, green tides have consecutively occurred 10 years, which is considered as the world’s largest Ulva blooms. However, in recently years, golden tides caused by Sargassum seaweed have also been on the rapid rise, resulting in dramatic damage to the environment and economy again. This review introduced the formation of two macroalgal blooms in the Yellow Sea and reasonable measures to mitigate them, thus safeguarding the intrinsic and commercial value of coastal marine ecosystems.
