Remote sensing reveals Antarctic green snow algae as important terrestrial carbon sink

We present the first estimate of green snow algae community biomass and distribution along the Antarctic Peninsula. Sentinel 2 imagery supported by two field campaigns revealed 1679 snow algae blooms, seasonally covering 1.95 × 10(6) m(2) and equating to 1.3 × 10(3) tonnes total dry biomass. Ecosyst...
