Qualitative and quantitative analyses of the tintinnids retrieved in surface and vertical (down to 1150 m ) samples in the Scotia, Weddell, Bransfield and Bellingshausen areas allow us to define three distinct zones: (A) the Scotia Sea, Bransfield Strait

The rapid increase in atmospheric temperature detected in the last decades in the Western Antarctic Peninsula was accompanied by a strong glacier retreat and an increase in production of melting water, as well as changes in the sea-ice dynamic. The objective

In the present study we investigated the effects of restoration (northern coast) and anthropization (southern coast) on the spatial and seasonal distribution of ciliates communities in relation to environmental factors in coastal Sfax area. The low pH

Spatial variability of ciliates in relation to environmental variables and abundance of heterotrophic prokaryotes, picoeukaryotes, nanoeukaryotes, microphytoplankton and mesozooplankton were studied in the Gulf of Gabes- Boughrara lagoon system in the
