摘要

Zooplankton dynamics (community composition, juvenile somatic growth rate, adult egg production, secondary production) were studied in coastal waters of the Great Barrier Reef. Two sectors were compared, one adjacent to a catchment of near-pristine land use patterns, the other to a more intensively farmed catchment. Sampling was conducted in the austral winter (August) and summer (January-March) of two succeeding years. Gradients in zooplankton community composition were weak, with only moderate effects of season and sector. Overall, 37% of zooplankton biomass was in the 73-150 μm size fraction, 26% in the 150-350 μm fraction, and 38% was > 350 μm. There was no biomass difference and only small differences in community composition between samples taken during the day and at night; ostracods and large calanoid copepods were occasionally more common at night. Carbon-specific growth rates averaged 0.29 d~(-1) for cyclopoid copepods and 0.35 d~(-1) for calanoid copepods, with no difference between sectors. Calanoid copepod growth showed a significant relationship to chlorophyll concentration, but cyclopoid copepods did not. Copepod egg production was low (7.9 ± 5.9 eggs female~(-1) d~(-1)) and apparently food-limited. Copepod secondary production was lower in August (mean = 2.6, range 1.4-4.0 mg C m~(-2) d~(-1)) than in January-March (mean = 8.5, range 2.4-15.5 mg C m~(-2) d~(-1)). Secondary production by mesozooplankton in the 73-100 μm size range averaged 0.9% of total phytoplankton production.
