SCUBA ice diving along the coast of East Ongul Island, Antarctica
Biological surveys of benthic and ice-associated communities by SCUBA diving were performed on 15-31 January, 1981,at three points near Syowa Station (69°00′S, 39°35′E). Three biologists of the 21st and the 22nd Japanese Antarctic Research Expedition (JARE) participated in the surveys. Fifteen dives...
