A Bulgarian scientist participating in an expedition in the Antarctica has unveiled that organisms in the icy continent constitute an indicator on the man-made impact there.
Hydrobiologist Assoc. Prof. Lyubomir Kenderov was quoted by the Bulgarian news agency BTA as saying "My task is to show how the organisms that inhabit the seafloor can be used as an early warning that humans are changing the living conditions in Antarctica and that measures need to be taken.”
Kenderov is participating in the 32nd Bulgarian Antarctic expedition to Livingston Island, , PhD studied the bottom sediments that form the habitat, the water and its parameters.
"Bottom-dwelling organisms live in conditions of many extremes. The water temperature is always close to the freezing limit. Very often these organisms are deprived of a food source because conditions are harsh," the scientist explained. According to him, organisms that inhabit the bottom of the Southern Ocean try to survive without a food source in polar night conditions that last for months.
