The Evident Role of Clouds on Phytoplankton Abundance in Antarctic Coastal Polynyas

High-level primary production (PP) sustainability in the Antarctic coastal polynyas has not been adequately addressed. We investigated the relationship between the Antarctic coastal polynyas phytoplankton biomass (as reflected by Chl-a) and the cloud cover, which dominantly influences the light cond...
