Diatom sinkings speeds: Improved predictions and insight from a modified Stokes' law (2010, background): “Diatoms transport significant amounts of carbon and silicon to the deep ocean (Beaulieu and Smith 1998; Armbrust 2009).”
Biofuels from algae: challenges and potential (2010, neutral): “deposits originated from diatom biomass [87].”
Interactions between Diatoms and Bacteria (2012, neutral): “and thus affect other microbial communities (7).”
Insights into global diatom distribution and diversity in the world’s ocean (2016, background): “In general, marine planktonic diatoms are associated with nutrient-rich waters with high biomass that are commonly found in coastal waters, in upwelling areas, or during seasonal blooms in the open oceans, such as the North Atlantic spring bloom (3, 66, 67).”

Rethinking the marine carbon cycle: Factoring in the multifarious lifestyles of microbes (2015, background): “Eukaryotes present other types of genome complexity as well, such as regions of widely varied composition that complicate binning without a reference genome (89) and “mosaic” phylogenetic signals that require deciphering complex evolutionary histories (2, 31, 43, 44, 132).”
Chytrid infections and diatom spring blooms: paradoxical effects of climate warming on fungal epidemics in lakes (2011, background): “Diatoms are abundant phytoplankton, major contributors to carbon fixation and the preferred high quality food for many primary consumers (see Armbrust, 2009).”
Effect of Diatom Silica Content on Copepod Grazing, Growth and Reproduction (2016, positive): “Diatoms tend to dominate phytoplankton communities in wellmixed coastal and upwelling regions, as well as along the seaice edge, where sufficient light, inorganic nitrogen, phosphorus, silicate, and trace elements are available to sustain their growth (Armbrust, 2009).”
