Faecal Pellets
report
posted on 1978-01-01, 00:00 authored by Peter MartensThere are many plankton research programmes in which a knowledge of faecal pellets would be valuable, e.g., egg productivity, food chains, etc., but present knowledge is far from satisfactory. Copepod pellets are probably the most important group. This sheet attempts to show the little information that is available, and it is also hoped that, in revealing this scarcity, it will stimulate further research into a most useful subject.
