Calanus Finmarchicus
''Calanus finmarchicus'' is a species of copepods and a part of zooplankton, which is found in enormous amounts in the northern Atlantic Ocean. Distribution and ecology ''Calanus finmarchicus'' is most commonly found in the North Sea and the Norwegian Sea. It is also found throughout the colder waters of the North Atlantic, especially off the coast of Canada, in the Gulf of Maine, and all the way up to western and northern Svalbard. ''Calanus finmarchicus'' is one of the most commonly found species of zooplankton in the subarctic waters of the North Atlantic. Sometimes confused with '' C. helgolandicus'' and '' C. glacialis'', ''C. finmarchicus'' is a large planktonic copepod whose chief diet includes diatoms, dinoflagellates, and other microplanktonic organisms. In fact, some studies have shown that heterotrophic microplankton provide a "prey resource sufficient for net lipid synthesis as well as egg production". ''C. finmarchicus'' is a key component in the food web of the No ...
