MORPHOLOGICAL INVESTIGATIONS OF THE MICROALGAL COMPONENT OF TERRA NOVA BAY (ANTARCTICA) BY LIGHT AND ELECTRON MICROSCOPY
reserved In this thesis a morphological investigation on the phytoplanktonic community of Terra Nova Bay (Ross Sea, Antarctica) was conducted, with both light and electron microscopy, on samples collected from the desalination filters of the Italian research station “Mario Zucchelli” during the peri...
