Summary:Long - therm monitoring of lichen communities in respect to their reaction to ongoingclimatic changes in Antarctica. This study proves that macrolichens in maritime Antarctica can be monitored non-destructively by simple field methods combining digital photography and measurements of lichen thalli in botanical squares.
