	The activity describes the useful of PO (135 [PO4] + [O2]) and NO (9 [NO3] + [O2]) as tools to tracer the water masses in different zones of the Antarctica: Geroge V Land and Ross Sea. The sections are carried out during October-December 2004 by the ship N.B. Palmer. The framework was supported by the CLIMA (Climatic Long-term Interactions for the Mass balance in Antarctica of the Italian Antarctic Program-PNRA) and AnSlope projects (Antarctic Slope of the United States Antarctic Program-USAP).
