The nutrient characteristics of aquatic environments at Hope Bay “Antarctica” depend on different factors, penguin enrichment being one of the most important. In this study we surveyed three water bodies of different morphometry and trophic status: Esperanza Lake “oligotrophic”, Boeckella Lake “meso...
