Scientists from Chile and Germany will investigate the low oxygen levels in the area, in addition to reconstructing the geological history of the place and analyzing the variations it has experienced due to the effects of climate change. From January 28 to February...
The equipment acquired by the IDEAL Center will contribute to filling an information gap on the appearance and characteristics of these organisms at high latitudes. Phytoplankton is a key element in the food web of the world’s aquatic ecosystems, since it...
Through predictive models, research published in the scientific journal Progress in Oceanography revealed that by the end of the century there will be a decrease in the biomass of this organism. This will also mean a displacement of species that depend on it, such as...
A team of scientists monitored the environmental conditions of the white continent for five months. With this, the researchers seek to obtain a continuous record of the variations between seasons. After spending more than five months at the Antarctic base, Professor...
Scientific work shows the importance of in-depth analysis of these organisms, key links in the food chain in Antarctica and highly sensitive to environmental changes It is becoming increasingly imperative to understand how the effects of climate change are affecting...
Thanks to a novel oceanographic sampling system used in the extreme south of Chile, it was possible to detect a microalgae capable of producing neurotoxic effects in mammals. The research was published in the prestigious journal Progress in Oceanography. After two...
