Sea ice primary production off eastern Antarctica
Sea ice covers up to 20 million km2 of the Southern Ocean. When present it supports a vigorous ecosystem that provides energy and food for all other marine organisms. Using the... -
Contribution of dinoflagellates to Antarctic coastal zone carbon flux
Some scanning electron microscope images were taken of dinoflagellates sampled as part of this project. A catalogue of the images taken is provided as part of the download file... -
Macroalgal responses to heavy metals and varying light levels at Casey Station
In situ chlorophyll fluorescence measurements using pulse amplitude technique (PAM) of macroalga Desmarestia menziesii, assessing adaptation to high light exposure after sea ice... -
Sea ice algae growth rate data collected during the SIPEX II voyage of the...
Chlorophyll data was used to measure growth rates of sea ice algae in CO2 incubations. Sea ice brine microalgae was collected from sackholes. Replicate samples were incubated in... -
Nella Dan: SIBEX II Cruise Phytoplankton Data
This dataset contains results from the Second International BIOMASS Experiment II (SIBEX II) cruise of the Nella Dan, taken in January 1985. This cruise was the fourth cruise in... -
Integrated PAR exposure of sea ice in East Antarctica
The data comprise images (encapsulated postscript and PNG formats) showing the integrated solar irradiance exposure of sea ice. The exposure value for ice at a given grid point... -
Under ice photosynthesis data collected during the SIPEX II voyage of the...
Data were obtained from vertical profiles of a Fast Repetition Rate Fluorometer (FRRF, Chelsea FASTocean). The full set of parameters available are reported here. FRRF data have... -
Role of micronutrients in the sea ice microbial ecosystem
The productivity of Antarctic waters may be controlled by the amount of iron. Experiments have shown that this is probably the case for phytoplankton but as yet we do not know... -
The role of antarctic marine protists in trophodynamics and global change...
This is a parent metadata record for work carried out as part of ASAC/AAS project 40. See the child metadata records for further information. More than 95% of the biomass in the... -
Latitudinal Gradient Project - Australian contributions
This record relates to the Australian component of the Latitudinal Gradient Project. The LGP is largely a New Zealand, US and Italian venture, but a small contribution has been...
