Abstract:
Observations of bacteria abundance and chlorophyll-a concentrations
were extracted from sea ice cores. Ice cores, ~1 meter in length, were
obtained during 2 ship cruises to the Antarctic, July-August 2001.
The general survey area includes: the continental shelf to the west of
the Antarctic Peninsula extending from the northern tip of Adelaide
... Island to the southern portion of Alexander Island, Marguerite Bay,
and seaward to the ~2000 meter contour.
Data reported: down core values of bacteria abundance, carbon biomass
and chlorophyll-a concentrations.
