dc.description.abstractThe study area is situated at Robert Island, which is located in the South Shetland Islands in the northwest of the Antarctic Peninsula. The diatom samples were taken as part of the Turkish Antarctic Expedition (TAE-II) which took place between March and April 2018. The samples were collected from the surface of sediments (c. 5 cm) at a depth of approximately 20 cm, 50–100 cm from the littoral zones of an inland glacial lake (L1) and three coastal lakes (L2, L3 and L4) situated on glacier-free area on Robert Island. The main objective of this study was to reveal the diversity and the abundance of diatom communities in the littoral sediments of the lakes on Robert Island. The lakes were shallow and oligotrophic freshwater lakes, although the coastal lagoons had a high conductivity and nutrient concentration. Twenty-six diatom taxa belonging to Achnanthes (1), Fragilaria (1), Frustulia (1), Gomphonema (1), Halamphora (1), Hantzschia (1), Hippodonta (1), Humidophila (2), Luticola (3), Melosira (1), Nitzschia (4), Pinnularia (3), Planothidium (2), Psammothidium (2), Stauroneis (1) and Stephanopterobia (1) were identified in the samples from these lakes. The coastal lake L2 showed the highest richness of diatom communities among the in studied lakes, with 21 identified taxa.
