Seaweeds (macroalgae) represent the most striking living components
in the Antarctic's near-shore ecosystems, especially across the
West Antarctic Peninsula and adjacent islands. 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.
