Comparison of mesh size effects on mesozooplankton collection efficiency in the Southern Ocean
Mesozooplankton abundance and species composition in the upper 200 m at seven sites in Lützow-Holm Bay, Antarctica, were compared using plankton nets with 60, 100 or 330 µm mesh during the austral summer of 2007–2008. While the collection efficiency of the 330 µm mesh was low, ranging from 2.0 to 5....
