Growth of Barents Sea capelin (Mallotus villosus) in relation to zooplankton abundance
Journal homepage: http://icesjms.oxfordjournals.org/ Because capelin feed on zooplankton, the availability of the latter may be a limiting factor for capelin growth in at least some areas and at certain times. It was therefore hypothesized that a relationship exists between capelin growth and zoopla...
