Do diatoms dominate benthic production in shallow systems? A case study from a mixed seagrass bed
Abstract We report an assessment for determining the contribution by diatoms to community productivity and respiration within a coastal benthic ecosystem with multiple autotrophs. During summer, cores of open sediment and seagrass habitat were collected from a lagoon within the Northern Gulf of Mexi...
