Le seminar uchungechunge luyingxenye yohlelo lwe-Future Earth oluxhaswe yi-cross-cutting initiative "Meta-Network" - inkundla yokuhlanganyela exhumanisa isayensi, inqubomgomo, kanye nokusebenza ukuze kuthuthukiswe ukusimama ogwini nolwandle.
I-Phytoplankton yizinto eziphilayo ezincane ze-photosynthetic ezakha isisekelo se-ecosystem yasolwandle, eziqhuba ukukhiqizwa okuyinhloko komhlaba wonke futhi zithinte imijikelezo ye-biogeochemical. Ukufudumala kolwandle ngenxa yokushintsha kwesimo sezulu kudala izinsongo ezinkulu ezinhlobonhlobo ze-phytoplankton kanye namaphethini azo okusabalalisa kanye nezindima zemvelo. Isethulo sihlola indlela Ibhayoloji Yokuguquguquka Kwesimo Sezulu njengomkhakha wemikhakha eyahlukene isenza sikwazi ukuqonda izimpendulo ze-phytoplankton kulezi zinguquko. Izimpendulo zebhayoloji ekuguquguqukeni kwesimo sezulu zifaka phakathi amashifu ahlukahlukene, i-phenotypic plasticity, ukuhlelwa kabusha komphakathi, kanye nokuqothulwa kwendawo noma ukushabalala kwezinye izimo. Ukwenziwa kwe-asidi olwandle kanye namagagasi okushisa olwandle kudala izinguquko ezengeziwe ku-phytoplankton dynamics ngezinye izikhathi ezikhiqiza ukuqhakaza kwe-algal okuyingozi okuholela emiphumeleni enzima yemvelo nezenhlalo-mnotho. Izindlela eziningi ezihlanganisa ukubhekwa kwesikhathi eside kanye nokuhlolwa kwelabhorethri elawulwayo kanye ne-mesocosm kanye nokuzwa okukude kwesathelayithi kanye nokumodela kwemvelo nokuhlaziywa kwemetha kuyasetshenziswa ukuze kuhlolwe lezi zimpendulo. Isethulo sibonisa ukuthi kungani izindlela zokucwaninga eziguquguqukayo ezididiyelwe zibalulekile ekubikezeleni izimpendulo ze-phytoplankton ezimweni zezulu zesikhathi esizayo ngoba lolu lwazi lwenza kube lula ukuphatha kahle imvelo yasolwandle kanye nokulondolozwa kwezinsizakalo ze-ocean ecosystem.

UDkt. Brisneve Edullantes unguSolwazi Ohlangene eMnyangweni Wezesayensi Yezemvelo Nezemvelo (i-DBES) weKholeji Yesayensi yaseNyuvesi yasePhilippines Cebu onobuchwepheshe be-Environmental Biology. Uthole i-BSc yakhe kwi-Biology eNyuvesi yasePhilippines e-Visayas Cebu College (manje eyaziwa ngokuthi i-University of the Philippines Cebu) ngo-2009. Uthole i-MEng yakhe ku-Environmental Engineering e-Mokpo National Maritime University, eNingizimu Korea ngo-2012. Uthole iziqu zakhe ze-PhD ku-Environmental Biology e-University of Essex, e-United Kingdom. UDkt. Edullantes ufundise izifundo ezintsha eziningi ezinhlelweni ze-Biology ne-Environmental Science, okuhlanganisa Ukuhlaziywa Kwezinhlelo Ze-Biological, I-Environmental Change Biology, kanye ne-Environmental Data Analysis and Visualization. Ubaqeqeshe ngenkuthalo abafundi abathola iziqu kanye nabaphothule izifundo zabo ekwenzeni ucwaningo lwesayensi. Ugxile kakhulu kwi-microalgal ecophysiology kanye ne-evironment change biology, njengoba kufakazelwa yizincwadi zakhe kumajenali ahlonishwayo kanye nezethulo kuzo zombili izingqungquthela zasekhaya nezamazwe ngamazwe. Ukuzibophezela kwakhe ekufundiseni, ocwaningweni nasenkonzweni yomphakathi kuphinde kugqanyiswe izibonelelo nemiklomelo ayitholile njenge-International Publication Awards (2015 - 2025), i-Gawad Chancellor Awards (2023 kanye ne-2024), kanye ne-National Academy of Science and Technology, Philippines (NAST PHL) Indondo Yephepha Elivelele Lesayensi (2025).
