Selectivity of plankton nets over mesozooplankton taxa: implications for abundance, biomass and diversity estimation
The importance of the smaller copepod species is often underestimated as a result of the use of standard 200 μm mesh size nets, even though the small copepods probably represent the dominant component of the mesozooplankton community. Although the inadequacy of relatively coarse nets in providing re...
