Biomass Turnover Rates in Metabolically Active and Inactive Marine Calanoid Copepods

Biomass Turnover Rates in Metabolically Active and Inactive Marine Calanoid Copepods

Lipid-storing copepods are fundamental to the functioning of marine ecosystems, transferring energy from primary producers to higher trophic levels and sequestering atmospheric carbon (C) in the deep ocean. Quantifying trophic transfer and biogeochemical cycling by copepods requires improved underst...
