The Census of Antarctic Marine Life: The First Available Baseline for Antarctic Marine Biodiversity
The Census of Antarctic Marine Life (CAML, www.caml.aq) was a 5-year long international project that focused the attention on the ice-bound oceans of Antarctica during the International Polar Year (IPY) in 2007–08, bringing together researchers from 30 different countries and more than 50 institutio...
