There are some 10-12,000 known species of freshwater diatoms, with a further 200-250,000 suspected species. A series of projects investigating their morphology, phylogenetic relationships and ...

diatoms, especially large-celled species, would be at a competitive disadvantage 1. We also suggested that a warming climate will simultaneously enhance the productivity of large phytoplankton ...

Morphological characteristics of diatom chains have been extensively studied, yet no studies have examined their mechanical properties. We studied the flexibility of four morphologically distinct ...

The Museum's diatom collection is one of the largest in the world, containing over 300,000 specimens accumulated from the early nineteenth century to the present day. The collections are a crucial ...

Here we quantify the effect of the partial pressure of carbon dioxide (PCO₂), at levels of 190, 380, and 750 μL L−1, on the growth rate, photosystem II electron transport rate (ETR), and elemental ...

Diatoms are a type of phytoplankton found in the oceans and rivers and have glass shells. There are several tens of thousands species, most of which are 0.1 millimeter or smaller and come in ...

The diatom collection at the University of Colorado Museum of Natural History is drawn from a variety of sources. It contains uncleaned and cleaned material, as well as permanent slides and material ...
