(Table 1) Salpa thompsoni abundance and biomass in the Eastern Bellingshausen Sea during April and May 2001

Only stations with salp catches are listed. Excretion rates were assumed to be 34.8 % in the Eastern Bellinghausen Sea. Potential carbon flux via salp pellets was calculated by using daily pigment ingestion rates combined with C:pigment ratio of fecal pellets.
