520 "The McMurdo Dry Valleys form the largest relatively ice-
free area on the Antarctic continent. The perennially ice-
covered lakes, ephemeral streams and extensive areas of
exposed soil are subject to low temperatures, limited
precipitation and salt accumulation. The dry valleys thus
represent a region where life approaches its environmental
limits. This unique ecosystem has been studied for several
decades as an analog to environments on other planets,
particularly Mars. For the first time, the detailed
terrestrial research of the dry valleys is brought
together here, presented from an astrobiological
perspective. Chapters include a discussion on the history
of research in the valleys, a geological background of the
valleys, setting them up as analogs for Mars, followed by
chapters on the various sub-environments in the valleys
such as lakes, glaciers and soils. Includes concluding
chapters on biodiversity and other analog environments on
Earth"--Provided by publisher.
