The Copepoda (Calanoida, Cyclopoida) of Northern Baffin Bay and Southern Nares Strait: Their Distribution and Aspects of Their Biology.
Plankton samples collected at sixty stations in northern Baffin Bay and southern Nares Strait between 1968 and 1970 are analyzed. Thirty-six copepod species are identified. Their distributions are controlled by bathymetric and oceanographic features of these regions. Distributions of indicator speci...
