Irakasgai-zerrenda
SyllabusThe biological and non-biological forcing-factors structuring biodiversity, community and population patterns from the meso- to the microscale will be examined. Methods of conducting and analysing field sampling programmes will be assessed. The position of zooplankton in the 'economy' of the pelagic ecosystem will be evaluated by (a) examining the feeding and reproductive strategies of a range of zooplankton types, (b) examining the make-up of zooplankton energy budgets and (c) assessing the methods available for the estimation and modelling of zooplankton secondary production. Responses of individual zooplankters to their environment will be studied by examining factors regulating tidal advection, larval settlement and the implications of diurnal vertical migration. The usefulness of zooplankton as biological indicators of water mass movement, global climate change and pollution will be examined. The potential of zooplankton as a commercial resource is investigated.
Practical classes are designed to introduce the diversity of mero- and holoplankton forms and to train students in formal taxonomic identification of temperate water species. The impact of zooplankton grazing pressure, in relation to the quantity, quality and species composition of available diet is measured and analysed.
