Turbulence and feeding behaviour affect the vertical distributions of Oithona similis and Microsetella norwegica
2006
Marine Ecology Progress Series
The small copepods Oithona similis and Microsetella norwegica are often numerically abundant and widely distributed, but the factors controlling their vertical distributions and role in carbon cycling are yet unknown. Here we examined the vertical distributions of copepods during spring and summer in the Skagerrak and during autumn in the North Sea with respect to different physiochemical factors including turbulent dissipation rate. The ambush feeder O. similis numerically dominated the
