The role of Antarctic marine protists in trophodynamics and global change and the impact of UV-B on these organisms - Voyage 2 2002/2003 samples

Locations of sampling sites for ASAC project 40 on voyage 2 of the Aurora Australis in the 2002/2003 season. Samples were collected between November and December of 2002.

The final dataset will contain information on chlorophyll, carotenoids, coccolithophorids and species identification and counts.

Public Summary from the project:

This program aims to determine the role of single celled plants, animals, bacteria and viruses in Antarctic waters. We quantify their vital role as food for other organisms, their potential influence in moderating global climate change through absorption of CO2 and production of DMS, and determine their response to effect of climate change.

2002/2003赛季南极光号（Aurora Australis）第2航次ASAC项目40的采样点位置。样本采集于2002年11月至12月期间。

最终数据集将包含叶绿素、类胡萝卜素、球石藻（coccolithophorids）以及物种鉴定与计数的相关信息。

项目公开摘要：

本项目旨在明确南极水域中单细胞植物、动物、细菌及病毒的作用。我们将量化其作为其他生物食物的关键角色、通过吸收二氧化碳（CO₂）和产生二甲基硫（DMS）对减缓全球气候变化的潜在影响，并确定它们对气候变化效应的响应。
