Assessment and constraint of mesozooplankton in CMIP6 Earth system models
Global Biogeochemical Cycles, 2022 Although zooplankton play a substantial role in the biological carbon pump and serve as a crucial link between primary producers and higher trophic level consumers, the skillful representation of zooplankton is not often a focus of ocean biogeochemical models.

Active Carbon Flux of Mesozooplankton in South China Sea and Western Philippine Sea
Frontiers in Marine Science, 2021 The active carbon flux mediated by diel vertical migration (DVM) of zooplankton is an important component of the downward carbon flux in the ocean. However, active fluxes transported by zooplankton DVM are poorly known in the South China Sea (SCS) and ...

Advection of Mesozooplankton Into the Northern Svalbard Shelf Region
Frontiers in Marine Science, 2019 The northern Svalbard shelf region is part of the Atlantic advective contiguous domain along which nutrients, phyto- and mesozooplankton are advected with Atlantic Water from the Norwegian Sea along the Norwegian shelf break and into the Arctic Ocean. By

Mesozooplankton communities in the Magellan region
Scientia Marina, 1999 During the Joint Chilean-German-Italian Magellan Victor Hensen Campaign in November 1994 zooplankton sampling was carried out by means of a multiple opening-closing multinet equipped with 300 µm mesh size.

Contribution of Calanus species to the mesozooplankton biomass in the Barents Sea [PDF]
ICES Journal of Marine Science, 2017 AbstractCopepods from the genus Calanus are crucial prey for fish, seabirds and mammals in the Nordic and Barents Sea ecosystems. The objective of this study is to determine the contribution of Calanus species to the mesozooplankton biomass in the Barents Sea.

The Plasticity of the Antioxidant Defence System of Coastal Zooplankton Communities
Ecology and EvolutionZooplankton are expected to enhance their antioxidant defences and activate stress‐related biomarkers in response to warming and reduced salinity or hypoxia and cyanobacteria blooms, reflecting both physiological adaptation to increased oxidative stress ...
