Hydrographic data and nutrient, chlorophyll and zooplankton samples were collected
biweekly at a hydrographic station off Newport, Oregon during the 1997–98 El Niño and …

We compiled a global data set of copepod in situ weight‐specific fecundity and growth rates,
together with measurements of their body weights, and the chlorophyll a and temperature of …

Using life history theory we make predictions of mortality rates in marine epi-pelagic
copepods from field estimates of adult fecundity, development times and adult sex ratios …

This paper explores the global rates and patterns of fecundity in marine epipelagic
copepods as a function of temperature, body weight of the female and the concentration of …

Seasonal variation in daily egg production rate of the planktonic calanoid copepod Acartia
lilljeborgi Giesbrecht in relation to temperature, salinity and chlorophyll a concentration was …

Abstract.—In all species, patterns of reproductive allocation have important fitness
consequences and therefore important implications for life‐history evolution. Nearly …

We assessed feeding, reproduction, survival and respiration in the boreal–polar copepod
Acartia longiremis over the salinity range of 3–16 in the Baltic Sea. Feeding and egg …

Pseudocalanus are the numerically dominant calanoid species in coastal subarctic Pacific
waters. We examined their juvenile growth rates, and explored their relationships to …

The fecundity of nine species of adult female calanoid copepods, and molting rates for
copepodite stages of Calanus marshallae were measured in 24 h shipboard incubations …

Zooplankton is the sum of heterotrophic organisms in the pelagial zone which move more
passively than actively and thus can be discriminated from the nekton which moves more …
