What is Antarctic Lakes about?
Antarctica possesses a remarkably diverse range of lakes, including freshwater and saline lakes (some as salty as the Dead Sea), tidal freshwater lakes (epishelf lakes), lakes on ice shelves and glacier surfaces, and an extraordinary network of lakes beneath the polar ice sheet, the so-called subglacial lakes. This book is the first to draw together current knowledge on the geomorphology, morphometry, chemistry, community structure, and functioning of these delicate unproductive ecosystems.
