Morphology and Mechanical Properties of Fossil Diatom Frustules from Genera of <i>Ellerbeckia</i> and <i>Melosira</i>

Morphology and Mechanical Properties of Fossil Diatom Frustules from Genera of <i>Ellerbeckia</i> and <i>Melosira</i>

Fossil frustules of <i>Ellerbeckia</i> and <i>Melosira</i> were studied using laboratory-based nano X-ray tomography (nano-XCT), transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS). Three-dimensional (3D) morphology characterization using non...
