Book Description:


First published in 1993, this book has been referred to as international research at its best and an invaluable reference. This second edition retains the format that made the first edition a popular bestseller, while updating the information with the latest research results available. The book describes the physico-chemical environment and, in a logical sequence, covers phytoplankton and primary production, the sea ice microbial communities and the secondary consumers, the zooplankton. The author includes a chapter on the biology and ecology of Antarctic krill that highlights its central position in the Southern Ocean food web. One of the most authoritative resources in the field, this volume covers all aspects of this important marine ecosystem.
