Diurnal variation of zooplankton biochemical composition and biomass in plankton production tanks = Variação nictemeral da composição bioquímica e biomassa do zooplâncton em tanques de cultivo de plâncton

The nutritional value of zooplankton (lipid and phosphorus contents) was analyzed in outdoor, plankton-culture tanks, to monitor the effects of diurnal variation and fertilization. Total lipid contents were significantly higher (average values of about 14% DW) for the treatment fertilized during the...
