Two year time-series fluxes of Silicoflagellates and Actiniscus : size fractioned results from subarctic Pacific Station Papa, 1982-1984
A seasonal flux study of silicoflagellates and Actiniscus was conducted at subarctic Pacific Station PAPA (50°N, 145°W; water depth 4200 m) during September, 1982 through August, 1984 using PARFLUX time series sediment traps deployed at 1000 m and 3800 m depths. The time series sediment trap samples...
