The phytoplankton standing stock and the nutrient concentration around the Balleny Islands were compared with those in the vicinity of the pack ice. The concentrations of phosphate, nitrate and chlorophyll-α fluctuated noticeably around the Balleny Islands, on the other hand, silicate concentrations...
