Luxury iron uptake and storage in pennate diatoms from the equatorial Pacific Ocean. Pseudo-nitzschia took up 22-fold more iron in 48h (into what appears to be ferritin) and then used this to support subsequent growth.

The wildfires weren't just unprecedented—scientists didn't think such catastrophic conflagrations would happen until the end of this century.
