Brief description

Environmental manipulation and competition experiments on cultured and natural diatoms will identify the response of key taxa to environment modification. Understanding the environmental factors governing diatom distribution and natural variability will provide a basis to interpret palaeo-environment records, and allow predictions how this temperature-sensitive ecosystem will respond to future change.

Project 2364
Twelve water samples were collected from 23/10/03 to 27/10/03, in open seawater between 60 degrees 45' S and 50 degrees 02' S. At each site, the following data were recorded from the ship's data logger: latitude, longitude, UTC time, local time, water depth, salinity, water temperature, fluorescence, UVB, and conductivity.
