Trophic interactions between copepods and microplankton: A question about the role of diatoms
Open accessAbstract
Relationships among microplankton composition, copepod diet, and egg production are examined with data from gut content analysis of copepods from California coastal waters and from the Irish Sea, feeding and egg production experiments on Acartia tonsa off southern California, and egg production measurements on copepods from a subtropical estuary (Port Everglades, Florida), temperate shelf waters (southern California, Irish Sea), and the open ocean (Gulf Stream). The copepod species studied appeared to feed preferentially on dinoflagellates and microzooplankton relative to diatoms. Patterns of variability in egg production conform, generally, to changes in dinoflagellate and microzooplankton biomass, but seem to be independent of changes in diatom biomass.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
