New insights into Cenozoic Silicon cycling in the Southern Ocean: refined application of silicon isotope ratios in biogenic opal
<p>The marine silicon and carbon cycles are intrinsically linked by a unique group of primary producers; the diatoms. These siliceous-walled phytoplankton play a significant role in carbon export, making them a critical component of the global biological carbon pump with the power to affect cl...
