Importance of landscape position and legacy: The evolution of the lakes in Taylor Valley, Antarctica
1. The major factor influencing the chemical composition and evolution of the major lakes in Taylor Valley, Antarctica, is their location within the landscape. Present-day microclimatic variation and its manifestation over the past 6000 years have led to the differences observed in these lakes today...
