Research Abstract |
Feeding activities of neritic copepods to toxic dinoflagellates in Sanriku area were investigated. I revealed the seasonal changes of abundance of toxic dinoflagellates, nano-and picoplankton and abundant copepods in the Sanriku area. Then, influence of toxic dinoflagellates and its produced substances to feeding activities of copepods were investigated by laboratory experiments. And I estimated the feeding selectivity of copepods to toxic dinoflagellates by field experiments in the period of toxic dinoflagellates become abundant.
