Photosynthetic rates of Antarctic sea-ice algae
Entry ID:
ASAC_854
Summary
Abstract:
From the abstract of one of the papers:
Oxygen microelectrodes were used to measure the photosynthetic rates of Antarctic fast ice algal mats. Using the oxygen flux across the diffusive boundary layer below the fast ice at Davis, a productivity range of 0-1.78mg C per square metre per hour was measured. This is at the lower end of fast ice productivity estimates and suggests that conventional ...
