Continuous Plankton Records - Geographical Variations In Numerical Abundance Biomass And Production Of Euphausiids In The North-Atlantic Ocean And The North-Sea
Geographical variations in the numbers, biomass and production of euphausiids and the contribution of common species to the total are described from samples taken during 1966 and 1967 in the North Atlantic Ocean and the North Sea by the Continuous Plankton Recorder at 10 m depth. Euphausiids were mo...
