Biological modification of carbonate chemistry in dense water outflows from the Mertz Polynya, East Antarctica
Polynyas, areas of open water with in the sea-ice pack, are often biologically productive, and are sites of enhanced airsea exchange. The Mertz polynya is formed in East Antarctica by persistent katabatic winds and an ice barrier created by the Mertz Glacier Tongue. The region plays a significant ro...
