Description
Meiofauna collected from sea-ice cores more

We collected sea-ice cores and analyzed them for algal pigment concentration and meiofauna abundance in order to answer the following questions: (a) Has the sea-ice meiofauna disappeared from the Beaufort Sea ice, and if not (b) How does the meiofauna compare to coastal or offshore studies in terms of composition and abundance?
