Potential Importance of the Timing of Spring Plankton Blooms to Benthic-Pelagic Coupling and Recruitment of Juvenile Demersal Fishes

Published: Oct 1, 2013
Abstract
Numerous studies have documented that during a relatively brief period the spring plankton bloom in temperate and high-latitude regions can deliver as much as half of the total annual input of organic carbon to the benthos. Further, it is known that the exact timing of the onset of phytoplankton blooms in relatively shallow inshore waters can be controlled by the amount of solar radiation received and hence is subject to variations in weather...
