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 …

Abstract The oligotrophic Adriatic Sea is characterized during a typical summer by low
productivity caused by strong water column stratification, which inhibits vertical mixing and …

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 …

Mesh selectivity is an important factor to be considered when sampling zooplankton.
Selectivity may differ according to the environment and taxon, but his has not been …

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 …

The choice of appropriate mesh-size is paramount to accurately quantify planktonic
assemblages, however there is no such information available for hydrozoans. Here …

Meroplankton play a crucial role in both benthic and pelagic ecosystems. Existing
quantitative research on estimating the quantities of meroplankton groups is both …

This study sheds light on the influence of dissolved oxygen (DO) and temperature on fine-
scale zooplankton vertical distribution in a seasonally stratified, enclosed marine lake on the …

The influence of Kuroshio water on temporal distribution and copepod diversity was
investigated in the Lanyang River estuary (LRE), the longest river in northeast Taiwan, to …
