Annotated species list of the Mollusca, Tintinnida, Amphisolenia (Dinoflagellata) and Radiolaria collected in pump samples by the Amsterdam Mid North Atlantic Plankton Expeditions, 1980-1983 (Proj.101 A)
The mid North Atlantic between 24°N and 55°N along 30°W and between 20°W and 30°W along approx. 25°N, investigated by the AMNAPE cruises in the four seasons, spring (1980), summer (1983) autumn (1981) and winter (1982), is dominated by Temperate waters with a northern and southern branch of the Nort...

| Summary: | The mid North Atlantic between 24°N and 55°N along 30°W and between 20°W and 30°W along approx. 25°N, investigated by the AMNAPE cruises in the four seasons, spring (1980), summer (1983) autumn (1981) and winter (1982), is dominated by Temperate waters with a northern and southern branch of the North Atlantic Drift, Subtropical Sargasso Sea waters in the south and Subarctic waters in the north (Yen der Spoel, 1981, 1986; Van der Spoel & Meerding 1983; Pafort- van Iersel, 1985). The present study gives the relation of the microplankton distribution in the upper 5m of the water column with the hydrography and seasons. |
