Abstract: [eng] [cze]
Microbial carbonates (calcification) have been reported in Antarctic lakes in James Ross Island with unusual periphyton communities (cyanobacteria and green algae). This is the first record of cyanobacterial thrombolite community in Antarctica. Mikrobiální kalcifikované krusty byly zjištěna v antarktických jezerech na ostrově James Ross s neobvyklým složením mikrobiálních společenstev (především sinic a řas). Je to první záznam cyanobakteriálních thrombolitů v Antarktidě.
