Research Abstract |
Diatom frustules tend to retain their chemical information when they form mega-aggregates. Using this property the chemical entity of diatom frustulea and chemical species of dissolved rare earth elements (REEs) in seawater are identified. 1.Difference in individual frustule specimens was too great to allow clear discussion on dissolution kinetics./2.Diatom frustules contain terrigenous elements at concentrations of 1/100-1/10 that of terrigenous matter./3.A majority of REEs dissolve as silicic acid complexes in seawater and diatoms can absorb them to incorporate into frustules./4.Diatoms digest terrigenous silicates to incorporate into frustules./5.Most of organic matter in diatom frustules is readily decomposed during settlement and only less than 2% of it remains even when diatomaceous productivity is extremely high.
