Trophic Dynamics of Zooplankton Before and After Polar Night in the Kongsfjorden (Svalbard): Evidence of Trophic Position Estimated by δ15N Analysis of Amino Acids
In polar ecology, zooplankton diets and survival rates vary according to the seasonality of solar radiation and oceanographic conditions. Each zooplankton species has evolved feeding strategies to survive in the diet-limited conditions of the “polar night.” Many zooplankton studies have reported sea...
