THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN WATER CHEMISTRY AND SURFACE SEDIMENT DIATOM ASSEMBLAGES IN MARITIME ANTARCTIC LAKES
Maritime Antarctic freshwater lakes and their catchments are inherently simple systems in an environment which is characterized by strong seasonality. Such lakes offer excellent opportunities to study the interaction of water chemistry and plant communities. The response of diatom species to environ...
