Microbial habitat dynamics and ablation control on the Ward Hunt Ice Shelf

The Ward Hunt Ice Shelf (83°02′N, 74°00′W) is an ∼40 m thick ice feature that occupies a large embayment along Canada's northernmost coast. Sediments cover 10% of its surface and provide a habitat for diverse microbial communities. These assemblages form an organo-sedimentary matrix (microbial...
