Some abiotic characteristics of shallow ponds included in an Andean peatland of the transitional desert of Chile

The study ponds are part of a peatland located in the Elqui river basin of the Andes. They turned out to be heliotropic (homoeother-mic), mesotrophic and mesopoikilohaline microlimnotopes. The ponds showed high content of dissolved metals, mainly Ca (mean ~205 mg/l), Na (~60 mg/l), Mg (~60 mg/l) and...
