Interannual fluctuations in copepod abundance and contribution of small forms in the Drake Passage during austral summer
(Springer, 2012-06)
The relative importance of small forms of copepods has been historically underestimated by the traditional use of 200-300-μm mesh nets. This work quantified the distribution and abundance of copepods, considering two size ...
Effects of food quality on growth and biochemical composition of a calanoid copepod, Argyrodiaptomus furcatus, and its importance as a natural food source for larvae of two tropical fishes
(2001-06-15)
Growth, reproduction and biochemical composition were analyzed for the copepod Argyrodiaptomus furcatus fed on the alga Ankistrodesmus gracilis grown in different media. The ingestion of this copepod by larvae of two species ...

Scaling copepod grazing in a coastal upwelling system: the importance of community size structure for phytoplankton C flux
(Pontificia Universidad Católica de Valparaíso, 2017)
Copepod distribution in surface waters of the drake passage using continuous plankton recorder and a Pump-Net onboard system
(Instituto Oceanográfico, 2012-07)
There is no single instrument that can sample quantitatively the complete spectrum of pelagic organisms, or even all the components of zooplankton. Mesh size is the main factor affecting species selectivity in the Continuous ...
Predation on microcrustaceans in evidence: the role of chaoborid larvae and fish in two shallow and small Neotropical reservoirs
(Sociedade Brasileira de Carcinologia, 2012-07-01)
This study was focused on the predation upon microcrustaceans by an invertebrate predator (chaoborid larvae), and vertebrate predators (fish), in two small reservoirs in southeastern Brazil, with and without macrophytes, ...
Prevalence and Phylogeny of Parasitic Dinoflagellates (Genus Blastodinium) Infecting Copepods in the Gulf of California
(CICIMAR Oceánides, 2008)
Plankton samples collected from Bahía de La Paz, Baja California Sur, Mexico in June 2008 revealed infection of copepods by Blastodinium spp. Of eight copepod genera encounte red in the samples, only one (Paracalanus) was ...
Mortality and bacterial decomposition of pelagic copepods associated to Oxygen Minimum Zones (OMZ)
(2018)
Mortality is perhaps at least constrained in copepod population dynamics. Traditional research for convenience assumes that mortality is driven solely by predation and therefore can be derived from changes in population ...
Copepods (Crustacea, Maxillopoda) from shallow reservoirs
(Associação Brasileira de Limnologia, 2012-06-01)
OBJETIVO: Dentre os microcrustáceos planctônicos, os copépodes Cyclopoida e Calanoida são um dos grupos mais representativos, contribuindo com a maior biomassa para a comunidade planctônica. O presente trabalho tem o ...
