In conjunction with the Long Term Ecological Research (LTER) project in the McMurdo Dry Valleys of Antarctica, lakes were monitored for microzooplankton by a team based out of the University of Nottingham (led by Johanna Laybourn-Parry). This dataset shows the abundance of heterotrophic nanoflagellates, cryptophytes, and ciliates found at various depths in Lake Fryxell and Lake Hoare.

In conjunction with the Long Term Ecological Research (LTER) project in the McMurdo Dry Valleys of Antarctica, lakes were monitored for microzooplankton by a team based out of the University of Nottingham (led by Johanna Laybourn-Parry). This dataset shows grazing rates of heterotrophic and mixotrophic flagellates found in Lakes Hoare and Fryxell at various depths and dates.

Investigation of the variation in soil biota and soil properties across the McMurdo Dry Valleys was part of the McMurdo Dry Valleys Long Term Ecological Research (LTER) project. The moisture content of soil samples collected for organism extraction and identification was determined.
The study began in the austral summer of 1993/1994. Samples were taken on:
* December 31, 1993
* January 3, 8, 10 and 13, 1994,
* December 12 and 22, 1994,
* January 6 and 9, 1995,
