BIOTEX 1

Listed in NASA Earthdata CMR

The BIOTEX 1 expedition was borne out of the BIOTAS (Biological Investigations of Terrestrial Antarctic Systems) programme of SCAR.

Description

Hosted by the Programma Nazionale Richerche in Antartide (PNRA) of Italy at Terra Nova Bay station in Victoria Land, the expedition was conceived to investigate the hypothesis that: The closed moss community at Edmonson Point represents the climax stage of a biotic succession along an environmental and nutritional gradient from isolated cold dry continental endolithic communities to warmer, wetter coastal cryptogamic communities enriched by run-off and excreta from sea birds.

A report detailing the expedition participants and an outline of project proposals is available as a PDF file.
