Pond diatom communities from the McMurdo Sound region of Antarctica, assessed from modern samples (2012-2016) and from historical samples collected during Shackleton’s Nimrod Expedition (1908-1909)
We performed a field survey to characterize diatom communities living in the benthic microbial mats of ponds across the McMurdo Sound region of Antarctica. Samples were collected during the Austral summers of 2012-13, 2013-14, and 2015-16 from the McMurdo Dry Valleys, Cape Royds, and from Hut Ridge...
