Mapping the in situ microspatial distribution of ice algal biomass through hyperspectral imaging of sea-ice cores

Abstract Ice-associated microalgae make a significant seasonal contribution to primary production and biogeochemical cycling in polar regions. However, the distribution of algal cells is driven by strong physicochemical gradients which lead to a degree of microspatial variability in the microbial bi...
