(aperture size .36 mm) net; no quantitative analyses were made on this sample. At the shelf stations (A-D) the net was lowered to as near the bottom as practicable and then raised to the surface. At the other stations, all in deep water, the maximum depth of each collection was 200 m. The oblique tows were made at ships' speeds of approximately 2 knots. The zooplankton was preserved in 5% sea water-formalin solution. TABLE 1. Zooplankton collecting data and types of analyses made on the samples.

scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
