Elemental chemical characterization of soils from two ice-free sectors in southern Livingston Island (northern Antarctic Peninsula region)

Some Antarctic terrestrial ecosystems are greatly affected by climate change, especially in the northern Antarctic Peninsula region which has had the greatest temperature increase in the last 60 years. This increase has been more pronounced since 2017 and has caused a retreat of many glaciers. The r...
