Several communities of autotrophic microorganisms, in which cyanobacteria are dominant or play a substantial role in their structure, were studied on the deglaciated Ulu Peninsula, northern part of James Ross Island, NW Weddell Sea, Antarctica, in 2007–2009. Our results were compared with similar da...
