Absolute and relative abundances of zooplankton taxa in Kongsfjorden during 2002
Seasonal changes in the zooplankton composition of the glacially influenced Kongsfjorden, Svalbard (79°N, 12°E), and its adjacent shelf were studied in 2002. Samples were... -
Biological traits, and egg and fecal pellet production of Calanus finmarchicu...
The effects of temperature and food was examined for Calanus finmarchicus and C. glacialis during 3 phases of the phytoplankton spring bloom in Disko Bay, western Greenland. The... -
Plankton biomass, POC and PON concentrations, and sinking velocities during t...
Phytoplankton and copepod succession was investigated in Disko Bay, western Greenland from February to July 2008. The spring phytoplankton bloom developed immediately after the... -
