      <title>Ecologists, material scientists pursue genetics of diatom's elegant, etched casing</title>
      <description>Scientists have discovered of whole subsets of genes and proteins that govern how one species of diatom builds its shell. For oceanographers, the work might one day help them understand how thousands of different kinds of diatoms - and their ability to remove carbon dioxide from the atmosphere - might be affected by something like global climate change.</description>

      <title>Chalk one up for coccolithophores</title>
      <description>Scientists have feared that gradual acidification of the world's oceans would wreak havoc with organisms that build protective outer shells. But a new finding shows at least three species of coccolithophores - single-celled algae that are major players in the ocean's cycling of carbon - are responding to ocean acidification by building thicker cell walls and plates of chalk, contrary to what some recent lab experiments have shown.</description>
