Journal of Experimental Botany, Vol. 68, No. 14, Special Issue: Carbon Concentrating Mechanisms in Aquatic Photosynthesis (2017), pp. 3937-3948 (12 pages) Marine diatoms are one of the most ...

We also suggested that a warming climate will simultaneously enhance the productivity of large phytoplankton, such as diatoms, in coastal regions, owing to increased wind-driven upwelling 1.

Her findings could offer clues to the diatoms' next move in a rapidly changing climate. "PPRs are a hot topic within marine literature, yet we know very little about how these mechanisms apply to ...

Diatoms are microscopic, unicellular, and photosynthesising aquatic microorganisms or algae covered in milk-colored silica ...

An essential component of aquatic communities, the single-celled microscopic diatoms sequester about 20% of the planet's carbon dioxide, form the core of marine food chains, and synthesize and ...

They are an internationally recognised type specimen repository, containing representatives from freshwater, brackish and marine environments. All major diatom groups, both fossil and recent, are ...

Oku became fascinated by the beauty of diatoms when he was a graduate student at the then Tokyo University of Fisheries (now Tokyo University of Marine Science and Technology). He could see ...
