Timescales of Growth Response of Microbial Mats to Environmental Change in an Ice-Covered Antarctic Lake

Lake Vanda is a perennially ice-covered, closed-basin lake in the McMurdo Dry Valleys, Antarctica. Laminated photosynthetic microbial mats cover the floor of the lake from below the ice cover to >40 m depth.
