Many diatoms follow a size diminuation - size restoration cycle in their vegetative phase, leading to daughter cells that differ in size. For the diatom Seminavis robusta, we investigated by cell trac...
Vast amounts of munitions dumped in the marine environment, have been reported to leak chemicals due to munition corrosion. The subsequent increased levels of explosives and related chemicals (E&RC), ...
Ocean warming and acidification pose significant threats to marine biodiversity and human nutrition by fundamentally altering the biochemical composition of marine organisms. A primary concern is the ...
Autumn phytoplankton blooms are increasingly observed in the Arctic Ocean due to more frequent strong wind events over open waters. A recent study on the Chukchi shelf suggested that diatoms in sedime...
The silica cycle is intimately coupled with marine food-web dynamics, biogeochemical transformations, and the efficiency of the biological carbon pump (BCP). To elucidate the factors controlling bioge...
