Zooplankton are a morphologically and taxonomically diverse group of animals. Many zooplankton feed on phytoplankton and thus provide a link between primary producers and higher trophic levels. Zooplankton density and biovolume were determined at grid stations on the annual LTER cruises along the western Antarctic Peninsula (WAP). Typically, zooplankton were collected with a 2x2 meter, 700um mesh net fitted with a flow meter and towed obliquely to 120m. Zooplankton distributions vary spatially due to water column characteristics, which affect their predators' distributions. As climate change continues to affect the WAP, the relative abundance of the various zooplankton components can also be expected to change.\n\n Funding and support provided by the National Science Foundation John Kerfoot National Science Foundation kerfoot@marine.rutgers.edu https://pal.lternet.edu/ information web browser Background Information Background information from the source information pointOfContact biodiversity biomass communities ecology habitats marine measurements plankton Population Studies populations zooplankton theme Palmer LTER project time time depth latitude longitude latitude longitude wind_speed depth depth wind_from_direction theme CF Standard Name Table v77 All data contained herein is licensed under the LTER Network Data Access Policy (https://lternet.edu/data-access-policy/).
