Lipid storage in marine zooplankton

TL;DR: The various functions storage lipids serve during the life history stages of zooplankton are very complex and still not fully understood and hence offer a multitude of fascinating research perspectives.
Journal ArticleDOI

Metabolic rates of epipelagic marine copepods as a function of body mass and temperature

TL;DR: The latitudinal gradient of community metabolic rate for net zooplankton in the ocean is estimated, emphasizing the non-parallelism between community metabolic rates and the standing stock of net zoopsalankton.
Journal ArticleDOI

The biological pump: profiles of plankton production and consumption in the upper ocean

TL;DR: In this article, a regional generalisation of the vertical relations of the main components of the photic pump is proposed, which relates to the role of heterotrophs in excreting metabolic wastes (especially ammonia), which may fuel a significant component of integrated algal production.
Journal ArticleDOI

Seasonal cycles of pelagic production and consumption

TL;DR: In this paper, seasonal cycles of photic depth, primary production and accumulation (or loss) of algal biomass were obtained from the climatological CZCS chlorophyll field and other data, together with mixed layer depths, which can be grouped into eight models.
Journal ArticleDOI

Life histories of large, grazing copepods in a subarctic ocean gyre: Neocalanus plumchrus, Neocalanus cristatus, and Eucalanus bungii in the Northeast Pacific

TL;DR: Life histories for the dominant, larger copepods of the subartic Pacific have been constructed by sampling from weatherships patrolling Ocean Station P during 1980 and 1981, suggesting low mortality rates for copepodite stages, particularly at depth in the habitat occupied during diapuse.
