Grazing of phytoplankton by copepods in eastern Antarctic coastal waters

A study measured chlorophyll a, primary productivity and grazing by copepods on photoplankton in the upper water column in eastern Antarctica. The main species responsible for grazing during this period were O. curvata, Oithona similis, Calanoides acutus and unidentified copepod nauplii.
