Controls on microalgal community structures in cryoconite holes upon high Arctic glaciers, Svalbard

OBIS Secretariat Open in mapper Explore occurrences

Glaciers are known to harbor surprisingly complex ecosystems. On their surface, distinct cylindrical holes filled with meltwater and sediments are considered as hot spots for microbial life. The present project addresses possible biological interactions5 within the community of prokaryotic cyanobacteria and eukaryotic microalgae (microal- gae) and relations to their potential grazers, additional to their environmental controls.
