Spatial Distribution of Krill (Euphausia Superba) and Other Zooplankton off Queen Maud Land, Antarctica

The Euphausia superba Dana, popularly known as the krill is the richest single species resource of the Antarctic waters and they form the chiefforage for whales, seals, birds, fishes and squids of this ecosystem. Several estimates regarding the magnitude of krill resource which has a circumpolar dis...
