Seasonal and interannual evolutions of biogenic silica standing stock and production at the KERFIX time-series station off the Kerguelen Islands ...
The biogeochemical cycle of silicon was studied at the Kerguelen Fixed Station (KERFIX) between 1992 and 1994. The timeseries shows a seasonal use of the stock of silicic acid decoupled from that of nitrate. Thus, silicon probably plays an important role in limiting the primary production of diatoms...
