Effect of nitrogen management in cultivation on the stability and microbial community of post-harvest Monoraphidium sp. algae biomass.

Long-term storage is necessary to mitigate for seasonal variation in algae productivity, to preserve biomass quality and to guarantee a constant biomass supply to a conversion facility. While ensiling has shown promise as a solution, biomass attributes for successful storage are poorly understood. Storage studies of Monoraphidium sp.
