International audience Phytoplankton assemblages from seasonally sea-ice covered Ryder Bay (Adelaide Island, Antarctica) were studied over three austral summers (2004-2007), to link sea-ice variability and environmental conditions with algal speciation. Typical of near-shore Antarctic waters, biomas...
