Vertical distribution of Calanus hyperboreus in the central Arctic Ocean’
The vertical distribution of Cdanus hyperboreus was determined for a 23-month period from net samples collected from T-3 Ice Island in the central Arctic Ocean. Distributions of copepoditc stages were similar, but dissimilar to that of the adults. The depth range of the copepodites was 300-500 m, ex...
