Description

Iconic, charismatic megafauna that call the Southern Ocean home are pretty special! We’re talking about the killer whales, seals and smaller, but still iconic, penguins! But what about their food? Microscopic phytoplankton and krill warrant just as much attention, if not more because they are the foundation of the entire Southern Ocean ecosystem! Today Shinae is joined by Marine Ecologist, Dr. Matt Pinkerton from the National Institute of Water and Atmospheric Research (NZ), to have a chat about the Southern Ocean food web, from microscopic organisms to top predators!
