Mycosporine-Like Amino Acids in Antarctic Sea Ice Algae, and Their Response to UVB Radiation

Mycosporine like amino acids (MAAs) were detected in low concentration in sea ice algae growing in situ at Cape Evans, Antarctica. Four areas of sea ice were covered with plastics of different UV absorption exposing the bottom- ice algal community to a range of UV doses for a period of 15 days. Alga...
