Popis: The icefree regions of the Antarctic continent(Antarctic oases [1]), have attracted the special attention of researchers from the very first studies, asregions more likely to harbor life. A prominent featureof their landscape is the presence of numerous different lakes. One such Lake is Lake Radok, located in theAmery Oasis (a socalled “mountain” oasis [2]) inEast Antarctica.Antarctic lakes are unique ecosystems which arecharacterized by lowtemperature and, mainly, oligotrophic conditions supporting rather simple truncated food webs [3]. Studying the biodiversity andcommunity structure of such lakes affords a greatopportunity to understand the mechanisms of adaptation and evolution of microorganisms, as well as in thesearch for new species [4] which may have biotechnological application.Lake Radok is covered with ice, up to 3 m in thickness through the year. However, during the summerseason, the lake surface is partially open, forming bothpolynyas and shore ice. The water catchment areaaverages 20.1 km
