Also, we investigate the rate-determining-step of methanation reaction on those surfaces, and the influences of the deposited surface species at reaction beginning on the reactivity of CO methanation.

Diatoms of this species, sometimes called "commuter" diatoms, remain burrowed in the sand during high tide, and emerge on the sand surface during the daytime low tide.

Different species of these lived at the surface and the bottom of the ocean.
