Photosynthetic processes in Antarctic sea ice during the spring melt

Jodi N. Young,

et al.

Abstract: High‐latitude oceans experience strong seasonality where low light limits photosynthetic activity most of the year. This limitation is pronounced for algae within and underlying sea ice, and these algae are uniquely acclimated to low light levels. During spring melt, however, light intensity and daylength increase drastically, triggering blooms of ice algae that play important roles in carbon cycling and ecosystem productivity. How the algae acclimate to this dynamic and heterogeneous environment is poorly und… Show more
