A Simple and Inexpensive Method to Gain Diatom Absolute Abundances from Permanent Mounts in Hydrobiological and Paleoecological Research

Here, we describe and discuss a method based on microscopical field of view (FOV) area to estimate diatom absolute abundances (densities or concentrations), and we statistically Gift Set verify its reliability, also comparing it to another commonly used method (microspheres).To test the new method, we purposely performed replicate counts, both with
