摘要：

An investigation has been made on the ecology of some saline lakes in the Vestfold Hills (60°38′S, 78°06′E), East Antarctica. The results indicate that changes of natural environment and physico chemical factors, as well as the variation and evolution of biological species do occur in some lakes. This can be attributed to seasonal and local climate changes and geographic differences in this regions. These findings are believed to be indicative to the effects from the processes of globle climate change, ice sheet retreat, and isostatic uplift, are presently occuring, and a study of the chemistry and biology of these Antarctic lakes may be a significant means of monitoring effects of global climate change in the Antarctic.

An investigation has been made on the ecology of some saline lakes in the Vestfold Hills (60°38′S, 78°06′E), East Antarctica.

This can be attributed to seasonal and local climate changes and geographic differences in this regions. These findings are believed to be indicative to the effects from the processes of globle climate change, ice sheet retreat, and isostatic uplift, are presently occuring, and a study of the chemistry and biology of these Antarctic lakes may be a significant means of monitoring effects of global climate change in the Antarctic.
