Definition

  • The aims of this project are: the limnological characterization of the different water bodies from Deception Island through the study of biotic factors (distribution of continental algae) and morphometric and physico-chemical features; the analysis of the diversity of freshwater, aerophilic and cryobiontic algae by means of a thorough floristic survey and comparison with floras of surrounding areas (Maritime Antarctica, Tierra del Fuego and Patagonia); the study of the structure and dynamics of algal communities from different biotopes (phytoplankton and periphyton) throughout summer and their relation with abiotic features; and the definition of the trophic status of water bodies and its relation with different sources of natural eutrophication.
