Photosynthetic performance of benthic microbial mats in Lake Hoare, Antarctica

We measured in situ photosynthesis of benthic microbial mats at various depths in Lake Hoare, a permanently ice‐covered lake of the McMurdo Dry Valleys, Antarctica, using oxygen (O 2 ) microelectrodes. We further investigated the vertical distribution and activity of pigments in the microbial mats u...
