Remote Antarctic Island reveals unique algal dynamics in snow and ice.
Article in ISME communications, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Snow and glacier algal blooms are increasingly well-documented in the Northern Hemisphere, but their diversity and ecology in Antarctic regions remain poorly understood. Here, we present the outcomes of high-resolution sampling of snow and glacier algal blooms across Signy Island (maritime Antarctica) during the 2023-24 austral summer (February-April 2024). Using light microscopy and metabarcoding (18S V4 region and ITS2) of environmental DNA, we characterised algal diversity across the frozen habitats available on the island (snowpacks, ice cap, and glaciers), with a relatively long-term (6 weeks) period of ecological monitoring on two contrasting blooms. Our data highlight abundant and diverse snow and glacier algal communities, with snowpacks dominated by the snow algal genera
