Becky Oskin: Cold, Dark and Alive! Life Discovered in Buried Antarctic Lake. In: LiveScience. 20. August 2014, abgerufen am 6. Dezember 2018: „Nearly 4,000 species of microbes inhabit Lake Whillans, which lies beneath 2,625 feet (800 meters) of ice in West Antarctica, researchers report today (Aug. 20) in the journal Nature. These are the first organisms ever retrieved from a subglacial Antarctic lake.“
Quirin Schiermeier: Teams set for first taste of Antarctic lakes. In: Nature. 23. März 2010, abgerufen am 6. Dezember 2018: „Over the past 40 years, radar imagery has revealed around 150 freshwater lakes of various sizes and ages beneath the massive Antarctic ice sheet. Some have been isolated from the outside world for millions of years, raising the possibility that they hold unique life forms. The dark, nutrient-deprived environment of the lakes could resemble conditions on Jupiter's moon Europa, which is assumed to hold a large ocean beneath its frozen surface.“
Peter Aldhous: First samples of Antarctic lake reveal thriving life. In: NewScientist. 20. August 2014, abgerufen am 6. Dezember 2018: „Antarctica is home to about 400 subglacial lakes, many of which are linked in drainage basins. Priscu calls it 'the planet’s largest wetland'.“

However, when it comes to large lakes -- they had expected to find ones as large as Lake Constance -- the scientists came up empty-handed, even though they analysed the radar data for every known lake criterion.“

Antarctica Detail: Ablation Lake. In: US Geographic Service. Abgerufen am 6. Dezember 2018: „A pro-glacial tidal lake in Ablation Valley, Alexander Island, with stratified saline and fresh water and depths exceeding 117 meters. The feature is dammed in the upper portion by ice that pushes into the lake from the adjacent George VI Ice Shelf. Named after the valley following British Antarctic Survey (BAS) limnological research from 1973.“
