摘要: Abstract The popular concept of the sea ice Polar regions as unbroken areas snow and is far from reality. There are in fact always considerable open water, including some size which normally to be found same place year year. mapping these has lately been much facilitated by remote sensing polar orbiting satellites. This unusual ecological niche exploited a specialized community plants animals.
