A eutrophic lake at Cierva Point, Antarctic Peninsula was surveyed during the summers of 1997 and 1998. Phytoplankton size fractions (micro-, nano- and picoplankton) were analysed, as well as the abundance of bacterioplankton and planktonic ciliates. No permanent vertical stratification was found ow...
