Copepod community structure and physiological rates shape the biological pump during early North Atlantic spring bloom

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography, Volume 71, Issue 7, July 2026.
Abstract Zooplankton plays an important role in the biological carbon pump, and zooplankton biomass and community structure can have a large influence on the sedimentation/remineralization balance of the water column. We investigated the potential effects of zooplankton community structure and eco‐physiology on the export and attenuation of vertical ...

The trophic roles of microzooplankton in marine systems [PDF]

open access: yesICES Journal of Marine Science, 2008
Abstract Calbet, A. 2008. The trophic roles of microzooplankton in marine systems. – ICES Journal of Marine Science, 65: 325–331. Microzooplankton (here defined as <200 µm grazers) are key components of marine foodwebs. Their grazing significantly affects primary producers and usually exceeds that of mesozooplankton.

Impact of ocean acidification on microzooplankton grazing dynamics

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science
This study examines the potential impacts of projected atmospheric carbon dioxide (pCO2) levels reaching 800 ppm by the end of the century, focusing on ocean acidification effects on marine ecosystems in the coastal areas of Bohai.

Planktonic food web structure at SSTF and PF in the Indian sector of the Southern Ocean during austral summer 2011

open access: yesPolar Research, 2018
This study aims to describe the planktonic food web structure with respect to phytoplankton biomass (chlorophyll a) and prevailing environmental conditions at the South Subtropical Front (SSTF) and the Polar Front (PF) in the Indian sector of the ...

Opportunistic feeding by Antarctic krill in the eastern Weddell Gyre

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography, Volume 71, Issue 7, July 2026.
Abstract Antarctic krill, Euphausia superba, is an important species in the Southern Ocean and is vulnerable to climate change. We studied the carbon sources for krill—specifically pelagic and ice‐associated (sympagic) particulate organic matter (POM), representing phytoplankton and sea‐ice algae, respectively—during March 2019 across three distinct ...

Microzooplankton Dynamics in Lower Chesapeake Bay and Its Major Tributaries [PDF]

open access: yes, 1997
This study identified the temporal and spatial variability of microzooplankton density and biomass at 14 stations located within Chesapeake Bay and four rivers. Microzooplankton are defined as those heterotrophic organisms which range from 20 to 200 $\mu$

Diel dynamics of zooplankton fecal pellet flux revealed by integrated in situ imaging observations and modeling

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography Letters, Volume 11, Issue 4, July 2026.
Abstract The contribution of sinking fecal pellets to the biological carbon pump depends on pellet properties, producer abundance, and the depth and timing of pellet production, which can be modulated by diel vertical migration. We examined diel variability in zooplankton fecal pellet flux in the subarctic Northeast Pacific using two image‐based tools:
