A few points about Diatoms.
Most diatoms are consumed by zooplankton and fish and do not
accumulate, unlike other phytoplankton.
That is why you SEE fewer Diatom blooms in photos.
Diatoms sink, other phytoplankton float.
This is another reason why we SEE less diatoms.
To answer the
Hi All,
MV, thank you for the input and I have spent a few days reading up on the
basics of the subject. I am just learning this field and so I ask your
patience. With that, I would like to ask two questions, if possible. Are
there diatoms that can regulate their buoyancy with intracellular
Yes, I understand the difference between micro/macro. I am trying to
understand how any diatom can be used in a controlled/prescribed way
concerning Geoengineering. In my cursory scan of the diatom field, I could

Macro algae do not contribute much.
Nano and Pico Plankton are the most dominant / prolific micro algae.
Diatoms sink and other algae float this is one reason why they contribute
more to sequestering carbon, there is not much literature on
