The Register of Antarctic Marine Species (RAMS): a ten-year appraisal
The Register of Antarctic Marine Species (RAMS) is a marine species database that manages an authorita- tive taxonomic list of species occurring in the Southern Ocean. RAMS links with several other initiatives managing biogeographic or genomics information. The current paper aims to briefly present...
