Due to their abundance, their central roles as primary producers and foundation organisms, and as sources of diverse metabolically active products, seaweed assemblages are fundamental to biogeochemical cycles in Antarctic coastal systems. In recent years, the imminence of climate change and the direct impacts of human beings, which are affecting vast regions of the Antarctic, have highlighted the importance of seaweed processes in connection with biodiversity, adaptation and interactions in the benthic network. Various research groups have been actively involved in the investigation of these topics. Many of these research efforts have a long tradition, while some “newcomers” have also recently contributed important new approaches to the study of these organisms, benefiting polar science as a whole. This book provides an overview of recent advances and insights gleaned over the past several years. Focusing on a timely topic and extremely valuable resource, it assesses the challenges and outlines future directions in the study of Antarctic seaweeds.Aquatic ecology Plant physiologyCommunity ecology, BioticPlant ecologyFreshwater & Marine Ecologyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L19066Plant Physiologyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L33020Community & Population Ecologyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L19120Plant Ecologyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L19112Algues marinesthubEcologia marinathubAntàrtic, OceàthubLlibres electrònicsthubAquatic ecology .Plant physiology.Community ecology, Biotic.Plant ecology.Freshwater & Marine Ecology.Plant Physiology.Community & Population Ecology.Plant Ecology.Algues marinesEcologia marina333.9538Gómez Ivánedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtHuovinen Pirjoedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtMiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910409695703321Antarctic Seaweeds2139480UNINA
