Oxygen budget of a perennially ice-covered Antarctic lake.
A bulk O2 budget for Lake Hoare, Antarctica, is presented. Five years of seasonal data show the lake to be persistently supersaturated with O2. Oxygen is carried into the lake in glacial meltstreams and is left behind when this water is removed as ice by ablation and sublimation. A diffusive loss of O2 from the lake through the summer moat is suggested. Measured values of the total O2 in the...
متن کاملFine-Scale Sea Ice Structure Characterized Using Underwater Acoustic Methods
Antarctic sea ice is known to provide unique ecosystem habitat at the ice–ocean interface. Mapping sea ice characteristics—such as thickness and roughness—at high resolution from beneath the ice is difficult due to access. A Geoswath Plus phase-measuring bathymetric sonar mounted on an autonomous underwater vehicle (AUV) was employed in this study to collect data underneath the sea ice at Cape ...
متن کاملMicroplankton dynamics in a perennially ice-covered Antarctic lake – Lake Hoare
1. Temporal and spatial variation in planktonic abundance, biomass and composition were determined in Lake Hoare (McMurdo Dry Valleys, Antarctica) over two summer seasons (1996–97 and 1997–98). 2. Phototrophic nanoflagellates (PNAN) dominated planktonic biomass, with a mean monthly biomass ranging between 27.3 and 40.4 lg C L. The deep chlorophyll maximum was mainly composed of cryptophytes (>8...
متن کاملMethane oxidation at the water-ice interface of an ice-covered lake
Lakes are important components of the global methane (CH4) cycle. In seasonally ice-covered lakes, CH4 transported by ebullition (bubbling) from anoxic sediments gets trapped at the water-ice interface. If not oxidized by methane-oxidizing bacteria (MOB), this can potentially lead to high episodic CH4 emissions at icemelt. To understand the fate of CH4 trapped below ice, we measured depth-distr...
متن کاملFine-scale population genetic structure of the yellow perch Perca flavescens in Lake Erie
Discerning the genetic basis underlying fine-scale population structure of exploited native species and its relationship to management units is a critical goal for effective conservation. This study provides the first high-resolution genetic test of fine-scale relationships among spawning groups of the yellow perch Perca flavescens. Lake Erie yellow perch stocks comprise valuable sport and comm...
