Silica in the oceans; biologicalgeochemical interplay
· Geobiology. 2021. TLDR. A mathematical model of the major fluxes and reservoirs in the marine silica cycle and the physiology of silica biomineralization found that the concentration of dissolved silica in seawater was less than ~150 μM during early Paleozoic timea value that is significantly lower than previous estimates. 6.
