Algae is found every where, even in the desert. If you take a handful of desert dirt and let it sit in some water in light, algae will start to grow. Thankfully it is very resilient, it produces most of the oceans oxygen and is the bottom link in the food chain for aquatic life. it is found in places which are damp and exposed to sunlight. it can also grow on walls. eg. under a tap
Blue-Green algae is found in shallow slow warm moving as well as stagnant water.
Gregorio Tiongson Velasquez (September 2, 1901-July 29,1989) was Professor Emeritus of botany in the University of the Philippines. He was known for his pioneering research in phycology, or the study of algae.
Algae is a plant, therefore it needs light. The photic zone has light, so that is where algae will grow. actually algae are of diffrent types red, brown green and yellow. Green algae and brown algae(stipe and frond) are usually in photic zone however red algae and bluegreen algae also inhabit aphotic zone On account of presence of pigments r-phycocyanin and r-phycoerythrin red algae can also absorb diffused UV light so can also prepare food in aphotic zone
Some of the types of algae are staghorn algae, black brush or beard algae, green spot algae, and green thread hair algae. Other types of algae are green water algae, and black green algae.

They are in kingdom Monera.
Depletion of ozone lets the UV to come in. These UV if fall on blue-green algae can destroy them.
Who Discovered Algae. Who Discovered The Philippine Blue Green Algae? ... Gregorio Velasquez is the one who discovered the blue green algae

The Kingdom Monera contains prokaryotic organisms: the bacteria and bluegreen algae.
Yes,Seaweed is a loose colloquial term encompassing macroscopic, multicellular, benthic marine algae.[1] The term includes some members of the red, brown andgreen algae. Seaweeds can also be classified by use (as food, medicine, fertilizer, industrial, etc.).A seaweed may belong to one of several groups of multicellular algae: the red algae, green algae, and brown algae. As these three groups are not thought to have a common multicellular ancestor, the seaweeds are a polyphyletic group. In addition, some tuft-forming bluegreen algae (Cyanobacteria) are sometimes considered as seaweeds - "seaweed" is a colloquial term and lacks a formal definition.
