Monitoring impacts of a changing climate on plant communities of Continental Antarctica.

To determine if climate change is impacting continental Antarctic plant communities we need to measure the growth rates of extremely slow growing organisms and relate this to changing climate. In addition, we need to develop new methodologies for measuring community change at very small scales. We a...
