The role of Antarctic marine protists in trophodynamics and global change and the impact of UV-B on these organisms - Voyage 4, Aurora Australis 2011/2012 samples

Created 23/06/2025

Updated 23/06/2025

Dataset contains CHEMTAX, Chlorophyll a and pigment data collected for ASAC project 40 on voyage 4 of the Aurora Australis in the 2011/2012 season. Samples were collected between February and March of 2012. Public Summary from the project: This program aims to determine the role of single celled plants, animals, bacteria and viruses in Antarctic waters. We quantify their vital role as food for other organisms, their potential influence in moderating global climate change through absorption of CO2 and production of DMS, and determine their response to effect of climate change. For more information, see the other metadata records related to ASAC project 40 (ASAC_40).
