Physiological characteristics of lipid-rich ‘‘fat’ ’ and lipid-poor ‘‘thin’ ’ morphotypes of individual Calanus finmarchicus C5 copepodites in nearshore Gulf of Maine

Calanus finmarchicus C5 copepodites may be found in a range of body morphologies from small, lipid-poor (‘‘thin’’) individuals to larger, lipid-rich (‘‘fat’’) individuals, which are often differentiated by depth.
