Temporal variations of zooplankton biomass in the Ligurian Sea inferred from long time series of ADCP data

Three years of 300 kHz acoustic doppler current profiler data collected in the central Ligurian Sea are analysed to investigate the variability of the zooplankton biomass and the diel vertical migration in the upper thermocline. After a pre-processing phase aimed at avoiding the slant range attenuat...
