Summary: | Species composition of the planktonic copepods was examined on the materials taken during the period from 1980 to 1986 in Aysen Fjord and Moraleda Channel, southern Chile. Of a total of 38 species encountered, four cold water oceanic species and four warm water oceanic species were used to detect the influence of the Subantarctic Surface Water and Equatorial Subsurface Water masses on this area, respectively. In particular, the relationships between the occurrence of the warm water oceanic species associations and the offshore current systems are discussed. |
