Summary
Abstract: To continue to improve our understanding of Ross Sea marine benthic ecosystem structure and function, investigations were conducted to determine how key benthic organisms (i) respond to ocean acidification, (ii) utilise pulsed addition of primary food sources, and (iii) how the diversity and abundance of benthic communities varies over time. (i) Specimens of the Antarctic gooeyduc Laternula ... View entire text
