Figure 14.13. Seasonal succession of ice cover, phytoplankton, copepods and protozooplankton (ciliates and dinoflagellates) in Disko Bay, W Greenland, 1996-1997. Sea ice cover is represented in white in a). The vertical blue line indicates the time when the bulk of Calanus spp. biomass leaves the surface layer giving room for an additional peak in protozooplankton biomass.
