Abstract

During the seasonal logistics operations of RAE-67 at the “Akademik Treshnikov” in the areas of the continental stations “Progress”, “Mirny” and “Bangera Oasis”, field work was carried out to collect water-ice and plankton samples on the topic “Cryal”, the purpose of which is to assess the role of sea ice biota in the pelagic ecosystem of the Southern Ocean.
