The Antarctic ecosystem

The aim of the present paper is to summarize the broad scope of this Discussion and to attempt to draw certain final generalizations about the Antarctic as a biological zone. It is almost impossible to omit all mention of the sea from a discussion of Antarctic biology, and consequently a review of A...
