Laser Scattering as a Tool to Determine the Effect of Temperature on Diatom Aggregation
Diatoms are estimated to contribute 25 percent of the primary production on Earth and therefore they play a significant role in the global carbon cycle. Diatom blooms often terminate with the formation of aggregates that sink rapidly from surface waters, affecting the flux of organic carbon from the...
