Abstract The coastal shelf of northern Norway and the Barents Sea is highly advective and mainly affected by the North Atlantic Current and the Norwegian Coastal Current. The oceanographic conditions are an important factor for the spatial and temporal distribution of zooplankton in the region. To q...
