The Zooplankton Of The Baltic Proper : A long-term investigation of the fauna, its biology and ecology
This paper is based on the results from a long-term zooplankton investigation in the Baltic proper in the years 1968—1972. Additional results, obtained by the authors in more recent investigations, have also been used in order to enrich the material with information not obtained in the principal inv...
