Biotic Responses to UV-B Radiation in Antarctica
Entry ID: JCADM_NL-NADC_BIOTIC_RESPONSES

[ Update this Record ]

Summary
Abstract: The significant impact of enhanced UV-B radiation on Antarctic marine
organisms has been widely recognized. So far studies on Antarctic
terrestrial organisms are few.

The aim of the project is to determine how cryptogams and
phanerogams (terrestrial algae, lichens mosses, the grass Deschampsia
antarctica) in Antarctic coastal habitats respond to Global
Environmental Change (especially UV-B ... View entire text
