During the summers of 1967 and 1968 the horizontal distribution and did vertical migrations of zooplankton were studied within the unique environment of Crater Lake. Sampling of the horizontal
distribution was done by towing plankton nets vertically in different locations. The vertical distribution was sampled by towing at different depths...
Selected zooplankton from three oligotrophic lakes in Oregon were studied to determine whether or not their instantaneous birth rates and densities could be used in lake classification. The species of zooplankton studied in their respective lakes were Daphnia, pulex in Crater Lake, Daphnia longispina in Odell Lake, and Daphnia longispina...
A study has been made of the vertical distributions and
migrations of a large number of zooplankton species at Weather
Station "P" in the Subarctic Pacific. Simultaneously towed horizontal
opening-closing nets were used for the study. The distributions
and migrations of 104 taxa have been subjectively grouped
into seven basic...
In an effort to elucidate the mechanism responsible for large-scale
zooplankton variability in the California Current, zooplankton biomass and
hydrographic data from the California Cooperative Fisheries Investigation
data set and wind data from Fleet Numerical Oceanography Center model
analyses have been used to construct a box model biomass budget. The...
Ten high mountain ponds in Mount Rainier National Park, Washington State, were
studied from June through September 1992 to investigate the influences of fluctuating
pond volumes on zooplankton communities. A temporary pond of short wet phase
duration was inhabited by zooplankton taxa with short generation times and a crustacean
taxa...
The species compositions and densities of the littoral and pelagic zooplankton
assemblages in Crater Lake were compared. The littoral and pelagic zooplankton
assemblages of most lakes are typically different due to different habitat conditions in the
two zones. The littoral zone of Crater Lake lacks many of the habitat characteristics,...
