Photoadaptation in Phaeocystis pouchetii advected beneath annual sea ice in McMurdo Sound, Antarctica
A bloom of the colonial microalga Phaeocystis pouchetii was advected from ice-free waters to beneath 1.5 m of annual fast ice in East McMurdo Sound, Antarctica in late December 1984. Strategies of photoadaptation to a reduction in growth irradiance involved a 3- to 4-fold increase in photosynthetic...
