The spatial variation in zooplankton biomass, abundance and species composition in relation to hydrography and chlorophyll a (Chl a) was studied in the subarctic waters of Hudson Bay and Hudson Strait. Sampling was carried out in early September 1993 at 21 stations arranged along a transect followin...
