Compiled in this report are tables
of zooplankton biomass data (displacement
volume), carbon equivalents, and
associated net tow data (volume filtered,
depth, temperature, and salinity)
collected with a Multlple Opening/Closing
Net Environmental Sampling System
(MOCNESS) during the warm-core ring
cruises which took between September 1981
and October 1982. Rings sampled were
81-D, 82-B, and 82-H. Also included are
plots of tow positions relative to ring
center and plots of biomass and
cumulative proportion of biomass versus
depth. A total of 81 tows and 1220
samples were taken.

The ecology of colonial radiolarians : their colony morphology, trophic interactions and associations, behavior, distribution, and the photosynthesis of their symbionts
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology and Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution, 1979-08)Colonial radiolarians (Spumellaria) are among the most common and abundant large zooplankton, but they have been little studied by modern biologists. Colonies were found on 98% of epipelagic diving stations in the period ...
