	note = {"Artificial substrates colonized by diatoms from Yaquina Estuary, Oregon, were exposed to solar visible radiation and three levels of ultraviolet radiation (UV-B, 290-320 nm). . . The results indicated that daily exposure to enhanced levels of UV-B radiation was associated with a decrease in species diversity of benthic diatom assemblages during all experiments after four weeks of growth. However, changes in taxonomic structure were not accompanied by a significant depression in chlorophyll a concentration, biomass, or radiocarbon uptake. In fact, in some experiments enhanced levels of UV-B radiation appeared to have a stimulatory effect on the latter parameters." *from the Abstract)},
