Diatom bloom‐derived bottom water hypoxia off the Changjiang estuary, with and without typhoon influence (2017, background): “Aggregated diatoms have high sinking rates and high vertical export fluxes (DeMaster 1981; Breed et al. 2004; Dagg et al. 2007; Kemp and Villareal, 2013) from the euphotic zone.”
Microbial Surface Colonization and Biofilm Development in Marine Environments (2015, background): “Microbial populations are enriched on marine snow relative to surrounding seawater free-living microorganisms, especially in oligotrophic open oceans (106, 313), and even these oligotrophic waters can produce very high concentrations of marine snow and diatom mats (314, 315).”
Phytoplankton as Key Mediators of the Biological Carbon Pump: Their Responses to a Changing Climate (2018, result): “Contrary to the above observations, Kemp and Villareal [87] showed that diatom production and the associated export of organic carbon might actually increase with higher thermal stratification and potentially act as a negative feedback to climate change.”
