Seasonal change in the abundance of zooplankton and species composition of copepods in the ice-covered sea near Syowa Station, Antarctica
Seasonal change in abundance and composition of zooplankton was studied in the ice-covered sea near Syowa Station (69°00′S, 39°35′E) over the year from January 1982 to January 1983. Total zooplankton showed two maxima in number in mid-winter and mid-summer, the largest number was recorded in mid-Jun...
