High Impact Science in Antarctica
Big changes in store for the Mertz Polynya: in February 2010 iceberg 9B9 collided with the Mertz Glacier, breaking the 70 km floating glacier off at the base. The Mertz Polynya was extensivley sampled by scientists at the 涩里番 in the summer of 2007/08, and this metagenomic survey will form an important baseline for evaluating on-going changes in the area.
