Diatom Assemblages in Soil: Implications in Palaeo-Ecological Interpretations
Abstract: AbstractDiatoms are microscopic, unicellular, eukaryotic algae belonging to the Class Bacillariophyceae which are abundant in most aquatic habitats and serve as useful proxies for multi-dimensional analysis of ecosystems. They inhabit waters and soils of both saline and freshwater areas. Diatoms as primary producers are vital for life on Earth, serve as significant source of oxygen, have major impact on global carbon cycle and are food source for many organisms at …
