Five animal phyla in glacier ice reveal unprecedented biodiversity in New Zealand's Southern Alps
Abstract Glacier ice is an extreme environment in which most animals cannot survive. Here we report the colonization of high elevation, climate-threatened glaciers along New Zealand’s southwestern coast by species of Arthropoda, Nematoda, Platyhelminthes, Rotifera and Tardigrada.
