摘要
The community structure of mesozooplankton was investigated in Dolgaya Bay (southern Barents Sea), a subarctic fjord, using a Juday net (0.168-mm mesh size) in July, 2008. A total of 39 species and higher taxa were found. Average abundance, biomass and diversity (+/- standard error) were 153,403 +/- A 15,855 ind m(-2), 570 +/- A 61 mg dry mass m(-2), and 2.25 +/- A 0.09, respectively. Copepods were the most numerous species. The mesozooplankton communities were dominated by omnivores (Oithona similis and Acartia spp.). Vertical distribution of the mesozooplankton was characterized by copepod dominance at each sampled layer. There were no significant correlations among physical variables and biological parameters, except negative correlation for the mean biomass and mean water temperature.
