摘要

We have studied the seasonal dynamics of abundance and feeding characteristics of three species of calanoid copepods (Acartia spp., Centropages hamatus and Temora longicornis) in the White Sea from the surface water layer (0-10 m), in order to assess their role in the pelagic food web and to determine the major factors gov erning their population dynamics during the productive season. These species dominated in the upper water layer (0-10 m) from June through September, producing up to 3 generations per year. Data on the food spectra revealed all species to be omnivorous; but some inter- and intraspecific differences were observed. Generally, copepods consumed diatoms, dinoflagellates and microzooplankton. The omni vory index 'UC (i.e., fatty acid unsaturation coefficient) varied from 0.2 to 0.6, which implied ingestion of phyto plankton. The different degree of selectivity on the same food items by the studied species was observed, and therefore, successful surviving strategy with minimal overlapping could be assumed. In total, the populations of the three studied copepod species grazed up to 2.15 g C m~(2) day~(1) and released up to 0.68 g C m~(2) day~(1) in faecal pellets. They consumed up to 50% of paniculate organic carbon, or up to 85% of phytoplankton standing stock (in terms of Chl. a), and thus played a significant role in the transformation of paniculate organic matter. Sea sonal changes in abundance of the studied species depen ded mostly on water temperature in the early summer, but were also affected by food availability (Chl. a concentra tion) during the productive season.
