Description Particulate matter collected at a single station in the shelf waters of Princess Astrid coast (70 degrees S, 11 degrees E) Antarctica, during the austral summer (Jan.-Feb. 1986) was analysed for phytoplankton biomass (Chl @ia@@), living carbon (ATP-C), particulate organic carbon (POC) and its constituent fractions including particulate carbohydrates (PCHO), particulate protein (PP) and particulate lipids (PL). Chl @ia@@, ATP and POC varied from 0.051 to 3.1, 0.33 to 1.81 and 305 to 1850 mu g l@u1@@ respectively, whereas PCHO, PP and PL ranged from 8 to 176, 22 to 132 and 8 to 209 mu g l@u-1@@ respectively. Data on these parameters showed large day to day variations and probably suggest patchy distribution
