However, the data showed that diatom biomass actually grew in proportion to dinoflagellate biomass everywhere except in the Arctic area of the North Atlantic. "The message there is that the ocean ...

Caption: Researchers expected to find a smaller proportion of diatom biomass in the phytoplankton population compared with dinoflagellates, but that wasn't reflected in the data.

Paleontologists from the University of Kansas have described for the first time a species of ancient near-marsupial discovered in Texas’ Big Bend National Park. Dubbed Swaindelphys solastella ...

Biomineralization is the process by which living organisms produce minerals. Biomineralization processes often lead to the hardening or stiffening of the mineralized materials. This includes the ...

Outside of the Bighorn Basin, however, biostratigraphy becomes more difficult. [ Related: Bones of a raccoon-sized prehistoric lizard sat in a jar for 20 years. ] ...

Diatoms are unicellular plant algae which are found in almost all the waterbodies. Different diatoms respond differently to different environmental changes, there existence depending on the ...

My research focuses on the evolution and biostratigraphy of Cambrian trilobites, as well as the macroevolutionary patterns and driving mechanisms of this major metazoan group. Many of our academics ...

There have been few taxonomic studies of centric diatoms in lotic freshwater environments in Brazil, especially in terms of those including nanoplanktonic forms, which are often neglected in studies ...

Assuming that diatoms are excellent bioindicators, it is expected that the temporal variation of environmental conditions governed by temperature and precipitation upstream and downstream of the ...
