摘要
THE Dynamics of Eddy Impacts on Marion's Ecosystem Study (DEIMEC) programme was begun in 2002 with the aim of understand the importance of the oceanic, upstream environment to the ecosystem of the Prince Edward Islands.(1) This island group consists of two small volcanic islands and provides many opportunities for studying ecological and evolutionary processes, for monitoring ecological changes in relation to global climate change and for conserving a unique component of the planet's biological diversity.
