    Amazing creatures, these Diatoms and Dinoflagellates. It seems that ‘harmful’ algae blooms almost always occur in shallow, coastal waters (like lagoons, estuaries etc) as opposed to the open ocean. Does this mean that Dinoflagellates are limited to these waters? Or are there other factors?
    If iron is added (as a result of a volcano eruption, or on purpose, by human interference), does this benefit the Diatoms mostly?

    6:11, this video say phytoplankton make 50 to 80 % of our planets oxygen, the other video says 1/5 to 1/4, that’s a big difference, some other videos say forests make 25 to 30% of our planets , it seems the planet regulates itself pretty well

    still brilliant talk : partway to solving the CO2 politics : show true roll of algae :
    and its other names that hide the true nature and science of :

    Plankton is a zooplankton (copepod), nice try tho

      @@danbell1618 In the first few minutes the speaker shows a picture of the character "Plankton" from Spongebob (a popular children's cartoon), and says that he is an example of a diatom. He's instead actually a rather obvious example of a type of zooplankton called a copepod. They have a singular eye and two large antennae (although they are highly diverse). Zooplankton are more animal-like plankton, whereas this talk is about plant-like plankton. In reality, the cartoon character looks nothing like a diatom.
