13 pages, 10 figures, 5 tables [EN] During January 1994, the photosynthetic response (P–E curves) of phytoplankton in the eastern part of the Bransfield Strait (Antarctica) was studied in relation to the mesoscale hydrographic structures in the area. The most important hydrographic features found in...
