Effects of UV radiation in Arctic and alpine freshwater ecosystems / Dag O. Hessen.
Title: | Effects of UV radiation in Arctic and alpine freshwater ecosystems / Dag O. Hessen. |
Author(s): | Hessen, Dag O. |
Date: | 2007. |
Publisher: | Berlin: Springer |
In: | Arctic alpine ecosystems and people in a changing environment. (2007.), |
Abstract: | Discusses effects of UV radiation on biota of tundra ponds that are widespread in circumpolar region. Identifies aspects of alpine and Arctic freshwater localities that could make organisms particularly vulnerable to UV radiation: shallowness (offering no depth refugium for biota); low levels of DOC and other UV-absorbing compounds; low level of nutrients and primary production; and frequent low temperatures that could slow down anti-oxidant expression and cellular repair mechanisms. |
