new light on this major environmental concern.</image:caption></image:image><lastmod>2019-12-06T21:32:43+00:00</lastmod><changefreq>monthly</changefreq></url><url><loc>https://neptune911.com/2019/12/04/ocean-climate-plan/</loc><image:image><image:loc>https://neptune911.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/12/fullsizeoutput_5a6b.jpeg</image:loc><image:title>OLYMPUS

Source of shaded-relief map: https://toposvalbard.npolar.no/. (C) Global winter surface-air temperature trends since C.E. 1980 (linear trends in °C/decade for December–February). Geographic locations of the Svalbard archipelago (this study, white open circle), Newfoundland, Canada (Hill and Jones [1990] sea-ice record, blue circle), and Labrador–Canadian Arctic (Halfar et al. [2013] algal sea-ice proxy, black circle) are shown. Data source: http://data.giss.nasa.gov/gistemp.

Under the microscope they look like beautiful glass jewellery boxes, but importantly, this dense, glass-like armour promotes sinking, which makes diatoms an important conduit for transport of carbon to the deep ocean where it can be stored for millennia.
