Controls on microalgal community structures in cryoconite holes upon high-Arctic glaciers, Svalbard
Glaciers are known to harbor surprisingly complex ecosystems. On their surface, distinct cylindrical holes filled with meltwater and sediments are considered hot spots for microbial life. The present paper addresses possible biological interactions within the community of prokaryotic cyanobacteria a...
