Fe and Zn effects on the Si Cycle and diatom community structure in two contrasting high and low-silicate HNLC areas

We compared the importance of Fe, Zn and Si availability for diatom growth and silicification through microcosm enrichment experiments in two contrasting HNLC systems of the Sub-Arctic and Sub-Antarctic Pacific. The Bering Sea was characterized by low Fe
