Nanoplanktonic diatoms are globally overlooked but play a role in spring blooms and carbon export
Diatoms are major oceanic primary producers, but some species belonging to the nano- and even picoplankton size are poorly characterized. Here the authors describe a massive spring bloom of the smallest known diatom in the Mediterranean Sea and reveal their general oversight at the global scale.
