Distribution and diversity of soil microfauna from East Antarctica: assessing the link between biotic and abiotic factors.
Terrestrial life in Antarctica has been described as some of the simplest on the planet, and mainly confined to soil microfaunal communities. Studies have suggested that the lack of diversity is due to extreme environmental conditions and thought to be driven by abiotic factors. In this study we inv...
