Large-scale green tides in the Yellow Sea occurred for 13 consecutive years since 2007. The unusual co-occurrence of green tides and golden tides occurred in the Yellow Sea in 2017. The causative species are
Ulva prolifera
and/or
Sargassum horneri
. Previous studies on physiological response characteristics of
U
.
prolifera
and
S
.
horneri
are done in the laboratory mainly
and there is no in-situ comparative study in this regard. In this study
the in-situ physiological response characteristics of both species were measured. The results indicated that cyclic electron flow and antioxidant system play more important roles in protecting
U
.
prolifera
while non-photochemical quenching is more important for adapting to the environment in
S
.
horneri
.
U
.
prolifera
has a stronger ability to utilize nutrients to rapidly increase its biomass under a suitable condition compared to
S
.
horneri
.
