Tracking past changes in lake-water phosphorus with a 251-lake calibration dataset in British Columbia: tool development and application in a multiproxy assessment of eutrophication and recovery in Osoyoos Lake, a transboundary lake in western North America

open access: yesFrontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2015
Recently there has been an active discussion about the potential and challenges of tracking past lake-water trophic state using paleolimnological methods.

Physiological and transcriptomic evidence for a close coupling between chloroplast ontogeny and cell cycle progression in the pennate diatom Seminavis robusta [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Despite the growing interest in diatom genomics, detailed time series of gene expression in relation to key cellular processes are still lacking. Here, we investigated the relationships between the cell cycle and chloroplast development in the pennate ...

Quantum mechanical calculations of rotational-vibrational scattering in homonuclear diatom-atom collisions [PDF]

open access: yes, 1973
Most calculations of the vibrational scattering of diatom-atom collisions use the breathing sphere approximation (BSA) of orientation averaging the intermolecular potential. The resulting angularly symmetric potential can not cause rotational scattering.

Investigation of Tribological Performances for Porous Structure of Diatom Frustule with FSI Method

open access: yesAdvances in Condensed Matter Physics, 2014
Tribological performances of the diatom frustule are investigated with the liquid-solid interaction (FSI) method. Take, for example, the representative Coscinodiscus sp.

Simonsenia aveniformis sp nov (Bacillariophyceae), molecular phylogeny and systematics of the genus, and a new type of canal raphe system [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The genus Simonsenia is reviewed and S. aveniformis described as new for science by light and electron microscopy. The new species originated from estuarine environments in southern Iberia (Atlantic coast) and was isolated into culture. In LM, Simonsenia

Towards a representative periphytic diatom sample [PDF]

open access: yesHydrology and Earth System Sciences, 2007
The need to acquire a representative periphytic diatom sample for river water quality monitoring has been recognised in the development of existing diatom indices, important in the development and employment of diatom monitoring tools for the Water ...

Use of benthic diatom indices for assessing ecological status of the Sai Gon river, Vietnam

open access: yesVietnam Journal of Science, Technology and Engineering, 2018
In the present study, the Biological diatom index (BDI) and the Trophic diatom index (TDI) were calculated for the assessment the ecological status and the water quality of the Sai Gon river in comparison with the physico-chemical variables. In addition,

A turbulent diatom vs dinoflagellate phytoplankton biomass model [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Phytoplankton blooms play an important role in global primary productivity and the dynamics of blooms are of interest to modellers. Diatom dominated phytoplankton blooms followed by dinoflagellate blooms are common in the Southern Benguela, and are often

Are marine diatoms favoured by high Si:N ratios? [PDF]

open access: yes, 1994
Competition experiments were performed first with 4, then with 11 species of marine phytoplankton at various ratios of si1icate:nitrate and various light intensities.

The diatom test for drowning: an unreported source of diatom contamination

open access: yesInternational Journal of Legal Medicine
Summary We describe here a previously unreported source of diatom contamination that may prove relevant in routine diatom analysis in suspected drowning cases. Glass microscope slides utilized in the process, during their manufacture, undergo a washing process, after which, diatomaceous earth (kieselguhr, fossil diatoms) is added to avoid ...
