Phytoplankton communities in relation to trophic status in lakes from Hope Bay (Antarctic Peninsula)

Nine lakes and ponds of Hope Bay (Antarctic Peninsula), with different trophic status were surveyed during four summer periods between 1991 and 1996. Some limnological features and the structure of their algal assemblages were strongly influenced by the eutrophication caused by sea-birds activity in...
