Seasonal mesozooplankton community composition was studied monthly from March to October 2007 in the high Arctic, Rijpfjorden (Svalbard), and related to abiotic (hydrography, sea ice) and biotic (ice algae and phytoplankton biomass) environmental conditions. The community was numerically dominated b...
