Physical forcing of a Western Antarctic Peninsula ecosystem: observations from a coastal ocean observing network at Palmer Station.

Poster Number:  122 Presenter/Primary Author:  Travis Miles Local polar marine food webs are undergoing large shifts in composition and structure along the Western Antarctic Peninsula (WAP).

Sources of phytoplankton to the inner continental shelf in the Santa Barbara Channel inferred from cross-shelf gradients in biological, physical and chemical parameters

Poster Number:  105 Presenter/Primary Author:  Mark Brzezinski Phytoplankton are a major food resource for filter feeding organisms occupying intertidal and subtidal habitats of the inner continental shelf.  In the Santa Barbara Channel (SBC) the continen

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
