A Discussion Note on Soil Development under the Influence of Terrestrial Vegetation at two Distant Regions of the Maritime Antarctic
Comparative studies of two soils from the maritime Antarctic herb tundra formations (Point Thomas oasis of King George Island and Argentine Islands region) have shown a substantial difference. We did not find any distinct correlation between Antarctic herb tundra formation cover and pH measures or t...
