21 páginas The photosynthesis-irradiance relationships (P-I curves) of natural plankton samples were studied in the Weddell Sea ice-edge zone, between Elephant Island and South Orkney Islands, during the austral summer of 1988–89. Three water bodies were distinguished in the region: Bellingshausen S...
