Zooplankton Community Structure from tows during cruises from Feb-1994 (HOT 52) to Sep-2022 (HOT 339) at Station ALOHA
Abstract:
Mesozooplankton (weak swimmers 0.2-20 mm size) are collected using oblique tows of a one meter squared net (202-µm mesh netting) from the surface to approximately 175 meters depth. The catch is size fractionated by washing through a nested set of net filters and each fraction analyzed for dry weight, C and N.
