Two hundred years of zooplankton vertical migration research
Vertical migration is a geographically and taxonomically widespread behaviour among
zooplankton that spans across diel and seasonal timescales. The shorter‐term diel vertical …

The physiology and ecology of diapause in marine copepods
MF Baumgartner, AM Tarrant - Annual review of marine science, 2017 - annualreviews.org
Diapause is a type of dormancy that requires preparation, typically precedes the onset of
unfavorable conditions, and necessitates a period of arrest before development can …

Trait biogeography of marine copepods–an analysis across scales
Functional traits, rather than taxonomic identity, determine the fitness of individuals in their
environment: traits of marine organisms are therefore expected to vary across the global …

North Atlantic right whale (Eubalaena glacialis) and its food: (II) interannual variations in biomass of Calanus spp. on western North Atlantic shelves
Abstract The North Atlantic right whale (NARW), Eubalaena glacialis, feeds on zooplankton,
particularly copepods of the genus Calanus. We quantified interannual variation in …
