Characterisation of aquatic resources in McMurdo Sound region of Antarctica: water chemistry, biological identity and genomic samples
Entry ID:
K081_2009_2010_NZ_1
Summary
Abstract:
Aquatic environments in Antarctica have changes over time with a changing climate. Small aquatic zones on the surface of glaciers ablation zones are comparatively constant and represent perhaps the largest volume of freshwater in many catchments. Recent research suggests that they harbour a variety of organisms, and may act as refugia for much of the Antarctic freshwater biota during adverse ...
