Phytoplankton structure and dynamics in a volcanic lake in Deception Island (South Shetland Islands, Antarctica)
This work constitutes the first floristic and ecological analysis of the phytoplankton community of a volcanic freshwater lake in Deception Island (62°57′S, 60°38′W, South Shetland Islands, Antarctica). The main limnological features and phytoplankton size fractions were analyzed. Samples were taken...
