Dynamic Chemical Equilibrium in a Polar Desert Pond: A Sensitive Index of Meteorological Cycles

The dramatic variation in the composition of a brine pond in Antarctica is a seasonal phenomenon. The phase relations of salts in solution are such that hydrologic conditions and temperature determine composition during the austral summer. Temperature is the primary determinant of composition during...
