Regular monitoring of mesozooplankton abundance and community composition collected with a monthly frequency in the Long Term Ecological Research (LTER) Station C1.Sampling Description
Study Extent
Monthly sampling from 1998 to 2001.Sampling
Zooplankton are collected by vertical hauls from 15 m to the surface using a WP2 net with 200 µm mesh, 56 cm diameter.Method steps
- Samples were fixed with Ca(HCO3)2-buffered formaldehyde (2-4% final concentration) for determination of species abundance and composition. Individuals were sorted and counted under binocular microscope.
