First published in 1993, The Biology of the Southern Ocean has been referred to as
international research at its best and an invaluable reference. Drawing on the considerable …

wet or dry weight in Antarctic krill Euphausia superba Dana are standardized with new data
on the relationships of three length measurements to wet and dry weight as functions of sex …

Using systems for long-term maintenance of Antarctic krill Euphausja superba in aquana,
positive growth was measured in a large number of specimens under controlled conditions …

The fluoride content of whole animals and different tissues of the euphausiid species
Euphausia superba and Meganyctiphanes norvegica was analyzed by two different and …

A rapid molt-staging technique was developed for the Chinese mitten crab Eriocheir
sinensis, with the aim of investigating selected molt-linked biochemical and inorganic factors …

A macro-zooplankton study from 1996 was repeated in 2006 and focused on euphausiid
species as indicators of advection and warming effects in Kongsfjorden, West Spitsbergen …

Moulting and growth as a key aspect of the life-history of crustaceans has been reviewed
here for Meganyctiphanes norvegica. Moulting is a cyclical process with relatively …

Background All crustaceans periodically moult to renew their exoskeleton. In krill this
involves partial digestion and resorption of the old exoskeleton and synthesis of new cuticle …

Adaptive processes linked to reproduction were studied comparatively for three populations
of Northern krill, Meganyctiphanes norvegica (M. Sars, 1857), sampled during winter and …

We quantified (1) spatio-temporal variation in molt stage (developmental state) of blue crab
Callinectes sapidus megalopae (postlarvae), and (2) the relationship between planktonic …
