Ecological research of James Ross Island. Ecosystem components-based approach to study structure and function of Antarctic vegetation oases.
Original language description
Long-term research of structure and function of Antarctic terrestrial ecosystems has been carried out on northern part of James Ross Island (JRI) by Czech scientists since 2007. In this contribution, results of both long-term studies and latest achievements of 2016 Czech Antarctic Expeditions are presented. Long-term ecological projects focus Climatology, Glaciers and permafrost, Hydrology and limnology, Terrestrial Biology, Environmental Science, and Medical Science. Main results are related to changes in climate characteristics on a local scale and their reflection in glacier mass dynamics and active layer of permafrost variation. Measurements of permafrost depth along a 6-km-long profile and on permanent research plots was done repeatedly using a probe approach. Soil samples in vertical profile of some probes were taken for analyses of grain structure and mass/volume soil characteristics.
