A decadal (2002-2014) analysis for dynamics of heterotrophic bacteria in an Antarctic coastal ecosystem: variability and physical and biogeochemical forcings

We investigated the dynamics of heterotrophic bacteria in the coastal western Antarctic Peninsula (WAP), using decadal (2002-2014) time series of two bacterial variables, bacterial production (BP) via 3H-leucine incorporation rates and bacterial biomass (BB) via bacterial abundance, collected at Pal...
