Review Antarctic Marine Biodiversity – What Do We Know About the Distribution of Life in the Southern Ocean?
The remote and hostile Southern Ocean is home to a diverse and rich community of life that thrives in an environment dominated by glaciations and strong currents. Marine biological studies in the region date back to the nineteenth century, but despite this long history of research, relatively little...
