The Importance of Mesozooplankton Diel Vertical Migration for Sustaining a Mesopelagic Food Web

The Importance of Mesozooplankton Diel Vertical Migration for Sustaining a Mesopelagic Food Web

We used extensive ecological and biogeochemical measurements obtained from quasi-Lagrangian experiments during two California Current Ecosystem Long-Term Ecosystem Research cruises to analyze carbon fluxes between the epipelagic and mesopelagic zones using a linear inverse ecosystem model (LIEM). Me...
