The Mcmurdo Dry Valleys Long‐Term Ecological Rsearch Program: New understanding of the biogeochemistry of the Dry Valley Lakes: A review
The McMurdo Dry Valleys Long‐Term Ecological Research (MCM‐LTER) site represents the highest‐latitude location of the 24 LTER sites supported by the U.S. National Science Foundation. Although the perennial ice‐covered lakes in the dry valleys have been investigated since IGY, detailed, ecosystem‐bas...
