The Agulhas Bank on the tip of southern Africa, like other shelf seas, is a relatively productive environment which plays crucial role in biology and success many commercially valuable fish species. Fish their larvae depend zooplankton to feed but, despite importance, little known about distribution production Bank. Here we present results from survey conducted March 2019 East Central Bank, inv...

Gut pigment content of the mesozooplankton community in Santa Monica Basin, California, USA was examined on 3 winter-spring and 3 autumn cruises between October 1985 and February 1988. Mean chlorophyll concentrations for the upper 70 m varied from 0.30 to 0.32 mg m-3 for autumn cruises and from 0.35 to 1.7 mg m-3 for winter-spring cruises. Larger crustacean zooplankton species, particularly the...

The equatorial Atlantic is characterized by its high abundance of zooplankton. However, starting point studies concerning the species composition in northern Brazilian continental shelf are still scarce. Species cataloging can help to know diversity this ecosystem and, consequently, develop conservation and strategies for natural resources management. Thus, work aims characterize composing zoop...
