Phytoplankton from natural water bodies of the Patagonian Plateau
The Patagonian Plateau is one of the most arid regions of Argentina, where mean annual rainfall ranges between 100 and 200 mm. This region contains different types of water bodies: large artificial lakes, permanent natural lakes, rivers and temporary ponds. In comparison with the Andean lakes, the a...
