Oithonid species are key components of estuarine zooplankton communities. The spatial distribution of Oithona nana and O. helgolandica (syn. O. similis) and their population dynamics were studied for the first time in a ...

Te marine cyclopoid Oithona similis sensu lato Claus, 1866, is considered to be one of the most abundant and ubiquitous copepods in the world. However, its minimal original diagnosis and the unclear connection with its ...

The copepod community structure, with special emphasis on small-sized species, was studied over the southern Patagonian shelf in late summer 2004, applying the first plankton sampling in the region with a fine-mesh (66 μm) ...

The mesozooplankton community was analysed in a large region of the Argentine Shelf (34(e41(S) on the main spring spawning ground of the anchovy (Engraulis anchoita), and its spatial pattern was related to the hydrographic ...

This paper describes the composition and abundance of mesozooplankton of Bahía Ushuaia and Bahía Golondrina. These small bays are located in the northern Beagle Channel. Sampling was carried out during January 20 - 23, ...

Surveys conducted during spring, summer and late winter in 2005-2006 over the southern Patagonian shelf have allowed the seasonal distribution of mesozooplankton communities in relation to water masses and circulation to ...

The goal of this study was to understand the zooplankton community composition and food web structure in San Jorge Gulf (45°–47°S, 65°30'W), a highly productive marine ecosystem in southern Argentina. A spatial grid of 14 ...

Copepods play an important role in marine ecosystems as a direct link of energy transfer between primary producers and higher trophic level consumers, such as fish. In the Argentine Sea, the Patagonian stock of Argentine ...

Desde el año 1995 se vienen realizando estudios sobre la comunidad zooplanctónica de la plataforma bonaerense asociados a las campañas de evaluación de la población norteña de anchoíta (Engraulis anchoita). En este trabajo ...
