Microzooplankton Species Found in Lake Fryxell
Summary
Abstract:
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 microzooplankton species found in Lake Fryxell.
