Annual hydrographic variability in Antarctic coastal waters infused with glacial inflow
During the 38 months between December 2018 and January 2022, multiparameter hydrographic measurements were taken at 31 sites within Admiralty Bay, King George Island, Antarctica. These records consisted of water column measurements (down to 100 m) of temperature, conductivity, turbidity, and pH as w...
