Meiobenthic biodiversity and fluxes within the Antarctic biogeochemical environment

Entry ID: AMD_BE_BIOGEOCHEM

[ Update this Record ]

Summary

Abstract: The purpose of this project is to determine the role of the
coastal zone and the deep sea ecosystems in the productivity
and energy fluxes in the Southern Ocean. In the Antarctic, where
the availability of the food resources - produced as well in situ
as imported - strongly depends on the seasonal variations of the
environmental ...
