Holocene paleoenvironmental change based on diatom records from the continental shelf of the Chukchi Sea in the Arctic Ocean
Diatom assemblages from ARA2B-1A taken in the Chukchi Sea shelf were analyzed to reconstruct paleoenvironmental changes during the last 10 ka BP. The...

Diatom evidence of ecological change in a deep subtropical reservoir (southeastern China) over the past 60 years
Understanding the ecosystem history of reservoirs threatened by water-quality degradation is of utmost relevance for public health and ecosystem...

Agent-Based Model of Diatom Population Dynamics in Marginal Arctic Seas in Summer
AbstractThe article proposes a hypothesis for the functioning of a diatom population under conditions of clearly defined water column stratification....

Fragmentation and separation of diatom valves in modern shallow lake sediments: a case study in Lake Kitaura, Japan
We investigated diatom-valve fragmentation and frustule separation in surface sediments in Lake Kitaura, a shallow lake in Japan, to clarify how...

The colourful optical appearance of centric diatom fossil frustules with diagenetic nanocrystalline calcite fill
Biophotonic nanostructures rarely withstand fossilization processes occurring after burial over geologic time. Even more distinctive is a change...
-
A simple method for taxon-specific purification of diatom frustules from ocean sediments using a cell sorter
It is necessary to purify diatom frustules by taxon to perform accurate geochemical analyses of diatom fossils preserved in sediments. However, the...

Changes in nutrient stoichiometry in responding to diatom growth in cyclonic eddies
Nutrient stoichiometry (e.g., nitrate + nitrite to soluble reactive phosphorus, refer to N + N/SRP, N/P hereafter) governs growth, competition and...

Impacts of anthropogenic pressures on underwater light conditions and diatom functional group distributions in mountain lakes
Underwater light availability and exposure of ultraviolet radiation (UV) in mountain lakes is mainly controlled by dissolved organic matter and ice...

A diatom-inferred water-depth transfer function from a single lake in the northern California Coast Range
This study examines the relationship between water depth and diatom assemblages from lake-sediment-surface samples at Kelly Lake, California. A total...

A diatom-based predictive model for inferring past conductivity in Chadian Sahara lakes
For decades, diatoms have been recognized as powerful bio-indicators of modern water quality. They have also been utilized in the design of transfer...

Environmental heterogeneity and productivity drive the assemblage of benthic diatom: a case study of the Three Gorges Reservoir
Dam construction has a critical effect on river ecosystems in the world, resulting in a rapid decline in biodiversity and ecosystem health. However,...

Paclobutrazol induces the concurrent accumulation of chrysolaminarin and lipids in the diatom Phaeodactylum tricornutum
Paclobutrazol is a plant growth regulator and inhibitor of endogenous gibberellin synthesis. It is a powerful inhibitor of vegetative growth by...

Winter distribution of diatom assemblages along the coastline of R. O. Korea in 2010
Diatoms are a globally successful and eukaryotic photosynthetic organism with an ornamented silica external wall. The relationship between their...

Yuzaoea gen. nov., a new biraphid diatom (Bacillariophyceae) genus and its phylogenetic significance
The flexed frustules in pennate diatoms are usually associated with monoraphid diatoms. Interestingly, we found a biraphid diatom species with flexed...

Diatom-based dissolved inorganic nitrogen reconstruction in the Changjiang River estuary and its adjacent areas
A five-component weighted average partial least squares (WA-PLS) calibration model was developed by analysing diatom assemblages in 34 surface...

A new diatom genus Spargeria gen. nov. (Bacillariophyceae) from **zang, China, and the description of two new species
During our investigation of diatom biodiversity in **zang, two species exhibited unique morphological features discriminative from all previously...

Lineaperpetua gen. nov.: a new diatom genus in the Thalassiosirales supported by morphology and molecular data
Based on a combination of morphology and molecular data of ribosomal DNA genes, a new diatom genus Lineaperpetua gen. nov. Yu, You, Kociolek & Wang...

Neoglacial lake-ecosystem changes above and below the subarctic Fennoscandian treeline inferred from changes in diatom functional groups
Algal communities act as sensitive indicators of past and present climate effects on northern lakes, but their responses can vary considerably...

A diatom-based paleolimnological re-assessment of previously polymictic Lake Opinicon, Ontario (Canada): crossing an ecological threshold in response to warming over the past 25 years
Long-term changes in diatom community composition provided important insights into how multiple stressors affected shallow, macrophyte-dominated Lake...

Abrupt diatom responses to recent climate and land use changes in the Cantabrian Mountains (NW Spain)
The multi-proxy study of sediment cores from Lake Isoba (43° 02′ N, 5° 18′ W; 1400 m a.s.l.) allows a detailed assessment of the past hydrological...
