The applicant proposes uses American-grown cultures of Antarctic diatom species Corethron Hystrix to support research activities at Palmer Station, Antarctica. The diatoms will be added to two large circular aquarium tanks as a food source for juvenile Antarctic krill. During feeding, flowthrough of seawater in tanks will be closed off to prevent outflow of diatoms. Additionally, outflow pipes will be covered in mesh screens fine enough to trap Corethron Hystrix and prevent release. These screens will be sanitized regularly, and outflow of seawater will be regularly sampled and tested for presence of diatoms prior to discharge to the natural environment.
