LAKRIS
Definition
- The LAzarev Sea KRIll Study (LAKRIS) aims to quantify seasonal population dynamics and physiological condition of krill with an interdisciplinary approach, in a region of the Antarctic that is poorly sampled and understood. Much of our knowledge of Antarctic krill comes from a few regions, such as the much-studied Antarctic Peninsula (Hofmann et al. 2004). But it is becoming increasingly clear that the seasonal survival mechanisms of krill are variable, so neither the local environment, (e.g. those along the Antarctic Peninsula) nor the response of krill to it, can be extrapolated easily to a wider area. The LAKRIS project will complement the existing international research activities within SO-GLOBEC and CCAMLR along the west Antarctic Peninsula, Scotia Sea and in the Southwest Indian Ocean Sector (Hofmann et al. 2004, Atkinson 2003, Nicol et al. 2000). http://www.awi.de/de/forschung/fachbereiche/biowissenschaften/polare_biologische_ozeanographie/projekte/finished_projects/lakris/project_overview/ (en)
