While the high phytoplankton biomass values of the 1983 study are characteristic of bloom conditions, the low biomass values of the 1986 study indicate that any bloom which might have been associated with the ice-edge wa

We quickly recognized that the ADCP profiles of backscatter intensity appeared to be well-correlated to vertical distributions of euphausiids, principally E.superba, but including Thysanoessa macrura. Zooplankton samples

From three seasonal investigations, it is clear that the marginal ice zone is an important habitat for E. superba. The pack ice serves as a nursery ground for larval and juvenile krill and offers protection from predator

Thus far, most assessments of the potential link between seabird reproductive performance and food supply have focused on chick growth rate, maximum chick body mass, or mass at fledging (e.g., Ricklefs et al. 1984; Croxa
