Development of a new kappa-carrageenan hydrogel system to study benthic diatom vertical movements.

Benthic diatom vertical movement has been investigated mainly through indirect measurements based on chlorophyll a fluorescence and spectral reflectance signals. The presence of sediment hinders direct imaging and grazers activity renders the work under controlled conditions very difficult. This stu...
