Abstract:

In this study, diatoms in epipsammic samples, which were taken from two stations selected in Kelkit Creek (Tokat/Turkey) between March and December 2018, were analyzed. During the study, a total of 25 taxa belonging to diatoms were recorded. The diatom species represented by the highest number of taxa were Cymbela (4 taxa), Nitzschia (4 taxa), and Navicula (3 taxa). Sorensen similarity index between the diatoms at both stations was found as 78.04%.

Epipsammic diatoms in streams influenced by urban pollution, São Carlos, SP, Brazil.

Epipsammic diatoms have important implications for ecosystem processes in lotic environments. Most of the studies on benthic diatoms concentrate on epilithic diatoms and very little is known about epipsammic diatoms. The objective of this study was to assess epipsammic diatom communities in streams in relation to environmental conditions. Epipsammic diatoms and water quality sampling was done a...

Cell coatings of surf diatoms

Many sandy beach surf-zones support characteristic accumulations of diatom cells appearing as dark brown patches at the water surface. These diatoms become buoyant during the day, adhering to air bubbles generated by wave action. This, together with water circulation patterns generated by rip currents results in the accumulation of diatoms. By late afternoon the cells lose buoyancy and the accu...
