Carbon fluxes and pelagic ecosystem dynamics around two western Antarctic Peninsula Adélie penguin colonies: an inverse model approach.

Poster Number:  71 Presenter/Primary Author:  Sevrine Sailley Using Palmer LTER data from annual summer sampling cruises, a food-web inverse model for the Western Antarctic Peninsula (WAP) pelagic food web was constrained, and model solutions were generated f

Multiple mechanisms of calcification and heterotrophic capacity may determine the response of calcifying cnidarians to ocean acidification

Poster Number:  70 Presenter/Primary Author:  Darren Brown Ocean acidification (OA) decreases the CaCO3 saturation state of seawater, making it thermodynamically challenging for calcifying cnidarians to precipitate mineral skeletons.  In th

Microbial Ecology of the WAP Continental Shelf Region

Poster Number:  68 Presenter/Primary Author:  Hugh Ducklow We present results from a large data set (N=5427 individual measurements at 449 stations, 2003-2012) on bacterial abundance and production and related hydrographic properties collected on ten, regi
