Copepod Behavior Responses Around Internal Waves
Internal waves are ubiquitous features in coastal marine environments and have been observed to mediate vertical distributions of zooplankton. Internal waves possess fine-scale hydrodynamic cues that copepods and other zooplankton are known to sense ...

Starvation reduces thermal limits of the widespread copepod Acartia tonsa
Organismal thermal limits affect a wide range of biogeographical and ecological processes. Copepods are some of the most abundant animals on the planet and play key roles in aquatic habitats.

Copepods’ Response to Burgers’ Vortex: Deconstructing Interactions of Copepods with Turbulence [PDF]
This study examined the behavioral response of two marine copepods, Acartia tonsa and Temora longicornis, to a Burgers' vortex intended to mimic the characteristics of a turbulent vortex that a copepod is likely to encounter in the coastal or near-surface zone.

Cyclopoid copepods have proved more effective for practical mosquito control than any other invertebrate predator of mosquito larvae. Their operational potential is enhanced by the fact that mass production is relatively easy and inexpensive. The exceptional potential of copepods for mosquito control was first realized about 25 years ago.

First report of two parasitic copepods of Pampus argenteus (Stromateidae) in west of Persian Gulf, Iran [PDF]
A survey on parasitic copepods was carried out on Pampus argenteus Euphrasen, 1788 in Hormozgan province. Totally, 62 specimens were caught by bottom trawl from northwest of Qeshm Island in summer 2010 and winter 2011. These were immediately frozen in on-

In laboratory bioassays we tested the predatory capacity of the copepod Mesocyclops annulatus on Aedes aegypti and Culex pipiens larvae. A single adult female of M. annulatus caused 51.6% and 52.3% mortality of 50 first instar larvae of Ae.
