Pelagic-Benthic Coupling, Food Banks, and Climate Change on the West Antarctic Peninsula Shelf

The West Antarctic Peninsula (WAP) shelf is deep and detritus-based (i.e., it is fueled by organic material sinking from intense seasonal cycles of primary production in the water column), leading to pelagic-benthic coupling. The WAP is warming rapidly, yielding increases in seawater temperatures an...
