Botany
Comunidad esciáfila de modo calmo, cinturón de algas esciáfilas. Se trata de fondos protegidos de la iluminación directa, ya sea por la absorción de la luz debida a la profundidad o por la configuración del fondo (i. e., grietas, extraplomos, paredes verticales). Se caracteriza por formas de vida erguidas y coloniales y abundante fauna de invertebrados sésiles como hidroideos, briozoos, poríferos y poliquetos.

Actualmente, sin embargo, los más amplios estudios biocenóticos y ecosfisiológicos, han señalado la importancia de la intensidad luminosa, es decir, la cantidad de luz necesitada por las diferentes especies de algas. Podemos así distinguir especies fotófilas (necesitan fuerte intensidad luminosa) y especies esciáfilas (especies de sombra).

From the above, it would sem that these are shade algae, but is there a more "scientific" term in English and what does the calmo mean?
Any help greatly appreciated

Floristic survey of Ectocarpales, Chordariales, Scytosiphonales and Sphacelariales (Phaeophyta) from the coast of Santa Catarina State, Brazil). The studied plants were collected in collecting 19 sites, during the period from 1991 to 1994, in all seasons of the year. The collections were restricted to the intertidal region, in rocky anchorages, including wave-exposed, moderately exposed and wave-sheltered sites. 14 infrageneric taxa were identified, of which two represented new references for southern Brazil: Asteronema rhodochortonoides (Børgesen) D.G. Müller & Parodi and Rosenvingea sanctae-crucis Børgesen. For each
taxon, we present ecological comments, occurrence, reproductive phases, taxonomic discussions and illustrations. The descriptions were given only for taxa with few or no citations for the southern Brazilian coast, and dichotomical keys of identification were presented for the genera and species.

: could it be calm water sc. algae, do you think? http://www.vliz.be/vmdcdata/imis2/ref.php?refid=66883||Nor am I!

I don't know. I don't think "modo calmo" = calm waters, from the definition on the Brazilian site..but I am not an expert on algae.

shade algae (Sciaphila)
"modo calmo" refers to the fact that they grow where there is no (other) abundant plant life, I don't know if there's an Eng equivalent.
DRAE: calmo, ma.(De calmar).1. adj. Dicho de un terreno o de una tierra erial: Sin árboles ni matas.

"Sciaphila" is the genus, "sciaphilic" the adjective.

Discussion
I have the same expression, but I think from my context "de modo calmo" does mean "calm waters":
"Estas explosiones reproductivas [algal blooms] que acaban atosigando a la biota que recubre (fots. X a X) no tienen mayor trascendencia si no son de larga duración, exceptuando zonas ***de modo calmo*** donde puede disminuir el oxígeno cerca del fondo, bien por la noche (por el añadido de la respiración de esta alga), bien por la muerte y descomposición masiva de ésta."
I interpret from my text that "de modo calmo" refers to "calm waters" which neither distribute the bloom nor rejuvenate O2 in the water.
If, in my case, it meant "zones nearly bereft of life", then the presence of the harmful algal blooms wouldn't be a point of interest.
