Control mechanisms on the reactive silicate fluxes by using on board resuspension experiments in the eutrophicated coastal environment by Özkan Ebru Y., Buyukisik Hasan B.

“…The presence of different silica flux values in stations with the same carbonate value may be explained both by different orgC values and by diatoms containing different group sizes. The silica flux is controlled by the CaCO3 coating on the diatom skeletons due to the fact that diatom skeletons act as crystallization nuclei in the calcite precipitation that is biologically affected. …”
