Antarctic Ecosystems

An Extreme Environment in a Changing World

John Wiley, 2011, 756 S., Geb., EUR ca.112.00

Since its discovery Antarctica has held a deep fascination for biologists. Extreme environmental conditions, seasonality and isolation have lead to some of the most striking examples of natural selection and adaptation on Earth. Paradoxically, some of these adaptations may pose constraints on the ability of the Antarctic biota to respond to climate change.
