A spring bloom of diatoms which occurred in large enclosed ecosystem bags at Loch Ewe, Scotland, during 1980, has been the subject of a chemical study. Changes observed in the general biochemical composition of the diatoms during the bloom are compared with the species distribution and changes in th...
