Remarks | Samples were collected with double ring nets that were hauled vertically over the entire water column within 3-5 m of the seafloor to the surface, which had an average depth of 40-50m. Abundance of Pseudocalanus minutus was correlated with bottom salinity. Southern stations had more adults and later-stage juveniles and northern stations were mostly composed of early stages (Ref 118525). |
