Distributions of phytoplankton blooms in the Southern Ocean

TL;DR: A regional pigment retrieval algorithm for the Nimbus-7 Coastal Zone Color Scanner has been tested for the Southern Ocean and revealed an asymmetric distribution of enhanced pigments in the waters surrounding Antarctica.
Journal ArticleDOI

Coastal zone color scanner pigment concentrations in the Southern Ocean and relationships to geophysical surface features

TL;DR: In this article, the authors examined the distribution of surface pigment fields in the entire southern ocean over a seasonal cycle and identified the occurrence of intense phytoplankton blooms during austral summer months and during other seasons in different regions.
Journal ArticleDOI

Physical controls on the development and characteristics of Antarctic sea ice biological communities- a review and synthesis

TL;DR: In this article, the authors reviewed the associated colonization, physiological adaptation, and growth of sea ice biota within these structures, to the levels presently identifiable, including frazil ice growth; the flooded snow layer; pressure ridge induced flooding; thermally driven brine drainage; and platelet-ice formation.
