Meteorological Connectivity from Regions of High Biodiversity within the McMurdo Dry Valleys of Antarctica Open
Meteorological connectivity between biological hot spots of the McMurdo Dry Valleys (MDVs) of Antarctica is thought to play a role in species distribution and abundance through the aeolian transport of bioaerosols. Understanding the potent…

Biotic interactions are an unexpected yet critical control on the complexity of an abiotically driven polar ecosystem Open
Abiotic and biotic factors control ecosystem biodiversity, but their relative contributions remain unclear. The ultraoligotrophic ecosystem of the Antarctic Dry Valleys, a simple yet highly heterogeneous ecosystem, is a natural laboratory …
