[en] Phenomena as the strong El Niño Southern-Oscillation (ENSO) in 1997/1998, can lead to fast changes in sea water temperature. Some species, like the golden jellyfish Mastigias papua (Scyphozoa, Rhizostomeae), are sensible to changes in the environment, and are being used as sensors to chemical pollution and global temperature changes due to their ecological responses to disturbances. The aim of this study was to compare the photosynthetic electron flow and its alternative electron flows upon heat stress in oceanic and lake golden jellyfishes.
