    Interesting project. There seems to be some interest in the growth of ice algae caused by industrial pollution.

    Nitrogen seems to be an obvious candidate but sampling is required to confirm that and the project does not appear to be well funded.

    Hadn't heard that, interesting. Amazing how life finds a niche.

Unfortunately, because of a plague of spam comments, you need to be a "registered user", otherwise your observations will be buried in a torrent of multilingual nonsense. Please do comment!

Say what you please, so long as it's phrased politely and is not libellous or legally proscribed. Fact, reason and wit are keenly welcomed.
