Size-based approaches are paramount tools for the study of marine food webs. Here, we
investigated the relationship between zooplankton body size, stable isotope composition …

Shelled pteropods and planktic foraminifers are calcifying zooplankton that contribute to the
biological carbon pump via the sinking of their calcareous shells. However, their importance …

Phyto-and zooplankton in Arctic and sub-Arctic seas show very strong seasonal changes in
diversity and biomass. Here we document the seasonal variability in the mesozooplankton …

The highly productive upwelling zone in the Southeast Pacific provides inputs of C and N to
the oceanic deep-water system via lateral transport, although the quality of this organic …

To provide evidence of the inadequacy of using conventional sampling methods to study
mesozooplankton community structure in confined environments, samples from a …

The influences of the 2011 La Niña event on the hydrological patterns and copepod
community structure were investigated in a shallow tropical estuary, the Taperaçu, in …

This study reports on the spatiotemporal distributions of zooplankton assemblages during
two harmful algal blooms (ΗΑΒs) and a dystrophic crisis in Papas lagoon (W Greece, E …

Zooplankton were sampled using large plankton net (LPN)(mesh size: 505 μm) and medium
plankton net (MPN)(160 μm) in the summer of 2008. 96 and 87 zooplankton species were …

Quantitative assessment of planktonic organisms is a key issue in understanding
biodiversity, biomass, and carbon fluxes in marine ecosystems during the ongoing …

The zooplankton community structure in bays fluctuates as a result of anthropogenic
activities in such waters. We focused on the short-term variability of a zooplankton …
