The zooplankton collections reported were obtained by the Arctic Biological Station during the years 1941, 1961,1962,1971 and 1973 to 1975 in the Beaufort Sea. Collections were made using nets of various meshes and of various sizes. Hauls were made mainly vertically, but occasionally horizontally or obliquely in depths from 2 to 700 meters. Number of organisms from these are given per cubic metres of water sampled assuming full efficiency . This data was rescued from the technical report. Grainger, E. H. and C. Grohe, 1975.
