Characteristics and growth forms of diatom communities in restored rivers at the Emscher catchment
Diatom communities of the restored Emscher catchment do not change significantly within a year, but time of restoration has a significant effect on diatom abundance.
In memory of our friend and colleague Luc Ector
Luc was the glue of so many lives and friendships in the diatom world; he was humble and always ready to help, no matter who. Always ready to tell a joke or a story to cheer someone up. The diatom community has lost one of its main, and most generous protagonists.
