The role of local and regional environmental factors for Calanus finmarchicus and C. hyperboreus abundances in the Nordic Seas

In the advective realm of the seas, it is challenging to disentangle the role of regional and local processes on zooplankton populations. However, comparative studies of spatially separated zooplankton populations can provide valuable insights into this issue. We studied interannual abundance variation of the key zooplankton species Calanus finmarchicus and C. hyperboreus in three near-shore locations of the Nordic Seas: off northern Norway,...
