Transport of Warm Upper Circumpolar Deep Water onto the Western Antarctic Peninsula Continental Shelf
Poster Number: 90 Presenter/Primary Author: Doug Martinson Five thermistor-moorings were placed on the continental shelf of the western Antarctic Peninsula (between 2007 and 2010) in an effort to identify the mechanism(s) responsible for delivering warm Up
Evaluation of Southern Ocean O2/Ar-based Net Community Production (NCP) Measurements
Poster Number: 87 Presenter/Primary Author: Scott Doney Sea-air biological O2 flux assessed from measurements of surface O2 supersaturation in excess of that of Ar is used commonly to constrain net community production (NCP) in the
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
Sea Ice and Plankton Ecology at Palmer Station
Poster Number: 67 Presenter/Primary Author: Hugh Ducklow One of the tenets of polar oceanography is the dependence of phytoplankton blooms on sea ice retreat and subsequent water column stratification.
The Disappearing Cryosphere: Ecological and Biogeochemical Consequences. An LTER Network Cross-Site Initiative
Poster Number: 66 Presenter/Primary Author: Hugh Ducklow The cryosphere, that portion of the Earth’s surface where water is in solid form for at least a month a year, has been shrinking in response to climate warming. The areal extent and duration
