McMurdo Dry Valleys Chlorophyll-A Concentrations in Lakes

An important part of the McMurdo Long Term Ecological Research (LTER) project is monitoring of spatial and temporal patterns, and processes that control primary production in perennial ice-covered lakes. This data set addresses this core area of research and quantifies chlorophyll-a concentrations at specific depths in McMurdo Dry Valley lakes.

麦克默多长期生态研究（McMurdo Long Term Ecological Research, LTER）项目的重要研究方向之一，是对常年封冻湖泊中调控初级生产力的时空格局与相关过程开展监测。本数据集聚焦该核心研究领域，对麦克默多干谷湖泊特定深度处的叶绿素a浓度进行了量化测定。
