Characteristics of the Arctic and Antarctic mesozooplankton in the neritic zone during summer. Polish Polar Research 25: 275–291
ABSTRACT: Zooplankton community composition, abundance and biomass from two polar localities – Kongsfjorden (Arctic) and Admiralty Bay (Antarctic) is compared. The community composition of zooplankton in both polar regions included similar taxonomic groups and the diversity at the species level was...

The community composition of zooplankton in both polar regions included similar taxonomic groups and the diversity at the species level was similar.
