Brief Description (Abstract):

The Antarctic continental margins are remarkably known for the diverse group of takes, ponds, and even streams. These water bodies may chemically range from distilled water of crystal clarity to salt-laden brines. Thirty-eight lakes out of a total of around hundred at Schirmacher Oasis, Antarctica were selected and surveyed during the austral summer (Jan-Feb. 1999). These included (a) twenty-two glacier-fed and glacier-fed intermountainous lakes, (b) twelve intermountainous lakes, and (c) four grounding-line lakes.

Status: Completed

Purpose: During the present investigation, selected physical and chemical characteristics of water samples from thirty-eight lakes of Schirmacher Oasis were determined.
