When it comes to diatoms that live in the ocean, new research suggests that photosynthesis is not the only strategy for accumulating carbon. Instead, these single-celled plankton are also building ...
The key to effectively measuring damagingly high levels of nutrients in freshwater streams lies in the microscopic organisms living in them, according to a group of Drexel University scientists. A ...
A biosensor made of fluorescent proteins embedded in the shell of microscopic marine algae called diatoms could help detect chemicals in water samples. The same research could also lead to new, diatom ...

Diatom taxonomy continues to evolve as researchers integrate morphological, molecular and ultrastructural techniques to resolve long‐standing ambiguities in species delimitation. Advances in ...
Trees get most of the love, but diatoms, a group of photosynthetic microalgae, produce 20% of Earth's oxygen and are the foundation of aquatic food webs. The prevalence and diversity of diatoms have ...
The Museum's diatom collection is one of the largest in the world, containing over 300,000 specimens accumulated from the early nineteenth century to the present day. The collections are a crucial ...
