Chemical limnology in coastal East Antarctic lakes: monitoring future climate change in centres of endemism and biodiversity

Polar lakes respond quickly to climate-induced environmental changes. We studied the chemical limnological variability in 127 lakes and ponds from eight ice-free regions along the East Antarctic coastline, and compared repeat specific conductance measurements from lakes in the Larsemann Hills and Sk...
