Here we present a new, pan-North-Atlantic compilation of data on key mesozooplankton species, including the most important copepod, Calanus finmarchicus. Distributional data of eight representative zooplankton taxa, from recent (2000-2009) Continuous Plankton Recorder data, are presented, along with basin-scale data of the phytoplankton colour index. Then we present a compilation of data on C. finmarchicus, including observations of abundance, demography, egg production and female size, with accompanying data on temperature and chlorophyll. . This is a contribution by Canadian, European and US scientists and their institutions. ... : Supplement to: Melle, Webjørn; Runge, Jeffrey A; Head, Erica J H; Plourde, Stéphane; Castellani, Claudia; Licandro, Priscilla; Pierson, James; Jónasdóttir, Sigrún Huld; Johnson, C; Broms, Cecilie; Debes, Høgni; Falkenhaug, Tone; Gaard, Eilif; Gislason, Astthor; Heath, Michael R; Niehoff, Barbara; Nielsen, Torkel Gissel; Pepin, Pierre; Stenevik, Erling Kaare; Chust, Guillem (2015): Biogeography of key mesozooplankton species in the North Atlantic and egg production of Calanus finmarchicus.
