Assessing diatom-mediated fatty acids in intertidal biofilm: a new conservation concern

Assessing diatom-mediated fatty acids in intertidal biofilm: a new conservation concern

Abstract Biofilm communities on intertidal mudflats are recognized as major producers of nutrients, especially fatty acids. The rising threats posed by both climatic and anthropogenic stressors increase the necessity of understanding and conserving these communities. Shorebirds provide a proxy for s...
