Production, Growth and Retention of Zooplankton and Ichthyoplankton on the Western Bank of the Scotian Shelf, Canada
Entry ID:
GLOBEC_029_CAN_006
Summary
Abstract:
The interaction of local and meso-scale physical and biological
seasonality and the timing of critical events were shown to be important in the persistence of zooplankton and larval fish on Western Bank. The research has addressed simple, tractable and field-ready circulation models that are used in near real-time to direct sampling in the field at the biologically appropriate temporal and spatial ...  Purpose: This research was directed at quantifying the linkages between the physical environment and the food-web coupling of zooplankton and larval fish in a typical continental shelf ecosystem.
