Regular monitoring of microzooplankton abundance and community composition collected with a monthly frequency at several discrete depths in the Gulf of Trieste, from 6/1993 to 11/1993.Sampling Description
Study Extent
Monthly sampling from 1990 to 1993.Sampling
Discrete water samples at 3 to 5 depth layers. 2 liters were collected at each sampling depth.Method steps
- Samples were fixed with Ca(HCO3)2-buffered formaldehyde (4% final concentration) and cell abundance and species composition of phytoplankton were estimated according to Utermöhl’s method (1958), using an inverted microscope equipped with phase contrast, at 200-320-400x final magnifications.
