Book Modern Trends in Diatom Identification

Download or read book Modern Trends in Diatom Identification written by Gabriel Cristóbal and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2020-05-28 with total page 294 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: High-resolution images of phytoplankton cells such as diatoms or desmids, which are useful for monitoring water quality, can now be provided by digital microscopes, facilitating the automated analysis and identification of specimens. Conventional approaches are based on optical microscopy; however, manual image analysis is impractical due to the huge diversity of this group of microalgae and its great morphological plasticity. As such, there is a need for automated recognition techniques for diagnostic tools (e.g. environmental monitoring networks, early warning systems) to improve the management of water resources and decision-making processes. Describing the entire workflow of a bioindicator system, from capture, analysis and identification to the determination of quality indices, this book provides insights into the current state-of-the-art in automatic identification systems in microscopy.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Diatom biology, genomics and ecology are becoming more relevant to the human species. While there have been recent compilations of some of the applied aspects of diatoms, and the dizzying pace of taxonomic revisions, this new volume bring us up to date on their classification, biology and ecology, as well as covering the topics of genomics and applied uses. In this collection, some of the leaders in diatom research present either new information or summarize recent research efforts on a wide range of topics, including the tree of life of diatoms, their classifications, the wide habitats and ecological spectra the group exploits, as well as the beauty of their form. This volume celebrates the diversity, emerging areas of research and fascinating ecology of the diatoms bringing this group of world-renown and emerging research leaders together. 'The Diatom World' will foster greater appreciation and research contributions on this incredibly diverse and fascinating group of organisms.

Book Diatoms of Montana and Western North America

Download or read book Diatoms of Montana and Western North America written by Loren L. Bahls and published by . This book was released on 2022-01-04 with total page 508 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This annotated and illustrated checklist updates and expands the one published over ten years ago (Bahls 2009). The atlas section presents images of voucher specimens and the catalog of taxa includes information on habitats, ecology and distribution of each taxon. This work is intended as a guide to the Montana Diatom Collection (MDC) with hope that it will encourage use of the collection to advance our knowledge of diatoms in North America. Each of the images in the atlas is linked to a specific locality, sample and slide in the MDC. The MDC is the source of materials that were used to describe a new genus (Kurtkrammeria), about 100 new species and combinations, and over 300 taxa in the Diatoms of North America online flora (diatoms.org). It is also the source of materials for about 50 research papers and a larger number of water quality assessment reports prepared for the Montana Department of Environmental Quality (MDEQ) and other agencies. I dedicate this work to future generations of people who are passionate about diatoms and the diversity of life.In addition to the annotated catalog and atlas of images, this volume also includes a list of research papers that are based on samples in the MDC, tables showing the location of type materials in the MDC, and a table of abundance-weighted mean values for conductivity, pH, temperature, total nitrogen and total phosphorus of 337 common species that are addressed in this volume.Volume 1 includes 840 taxa in 81 genera among the centrics (Coscinodiscophyceae), araphids (Fragilariophyceae) and monoraphids (e.g., Achnanthidium, Cocconeis), Eunotiales (e.g., Eunotia, Peronia) and selected genera of Cymbellales and Naviculales (e.g., Amphora, Cymbella, Navicula, Stauroneis). Volume 2 will include the remaining genera of biraphid pennate diatoms (Bacillariophyceae) including those in the Bacillariales, Rhopalodiales, and Surirellales.

Book Mathematical Macroevolution in Diatom Research

Download or read book Mathematical Macroevolution in Diatom Research written by Janice L. Pappas and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2023-08-09 with total page 587 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: MATHEMATICAL MACROEVOLUTION IN DIATOM RESEARCH Buy this book to learn how to use mathematics in macroevolution research and apply mathematics to study complex biological problems. This book contains recent research in mathematical and analytical studies on diatoms. These studies reflect the complex and intricate nature of the problems being analyzed and the need to use mathematics as an aid in finding solutions. Diatoms are important components of marine food webs, the silica and carbon cycles, primary productivity, and carbon sequestration. Their uniqueness as glass-encased unicells and their presence throughout geologic history exemplifies the need to better understand such organisms. Explicating the role of diatoms in the biological world is no more urgent than their role as environmental and climate indicators, and as such, is aided by the mathematical studies in this book. The volume contains twelve original research papers as chapters. Macroevolutionary science topics covered are morphological analysis, morphospace analysis, adaptation, food web dynamics, origination-extinction and diversity, biogeography, life cycle dynamics, complexity, symmetry, and evolvability. Mathematics used in the chapters include stochastic and delay differential and partial differential equations, differential geometry, probability theory, ergodic theory, group theory, knot theory, statistical distributions, chaos theory, and combinatorics. Applied sciences used in the chapters include networks, machine learning, robotics, computer vision, image processing, pattern recognition, and dynamical systems. The volume covers a diverse range of mathematical treatments of topics in diatom research. Audience Diatom researchers, mathematical biologists, evolutionary and macroevolutionary biologists, paleontologists, paleobiologists, theoretical biologists, as well as researchers in applied mathematics, algorithm sciences, complex systems science, computational sciences, informatics, computer vision and image processing sciences, nanoscience, the biofuels industry, and applied engineering.

Book Benthic Diatoms from Mediterranean Coasts

Download or read book Benthic Diatoms from Mediterranean Coasts written by Irene Álvarez-Blanco and published by . This book was released on 2014-01-17 with total page 409 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The authors present a taxonomic study of benthic diatoms collected from coastal rocks in seven northern Mediterranean sites (Italy, Spain, Greece, Turkey) in spring of 2010. An iconographic catalogue of high-quality SEM and light microscopic images, plus detailed taxonomic, nomenclatural and bibliographic information, are provided as a practical reference for further taxonomic and floristic studies on 91 plates. 120 representative diatom taxa, among them several poorly known species, selected from 23 samples, are described in terms of their abundance. The authors provide detailed information on the type material of each diatom species, a list of synonyms, a comparison of morphometric data provided in the literature (in tables) and a series of iconographic SEM-images which illustrate the taxon’s morphological variability, plus an exhaustive list of references. Nomenclature, taxonomy and systematic position of the described taxa are updated. Eight taxa are described as new to science and another seven are nomenclaturally recombined. Eight taxa are new records for the Mediterranean Sea and for five taxa Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) images are presented for the first time. An exhaustive reference list and indices of taxa conclude this volume and make it a valuable source of information for biologists working on benthic diatoms in general, not only of the Mediterranean region.
