HAVKYST-Havet og kysten

Exploiting new wideband echo sounder technology for zooplankton characterization, sizing and abundance estimation

Marine zooplankton functions at many levels in ocean food webs, as consumers, producers and prey. They are major contributors to elemental cycling and vertical fluxes. Despite their central role and more than 100 year of research on these organisms, the M arine Zooplankton Colloquium 2(2001) conc...
