一项为期一年的研究对百慕大马尾藻海表层至500米范围内主要浮游动物群的碳、氮、磷和碳水化合物含量进行了研究。碳含量从年平均桡足类干重的41.6%到虹吸管类的7.2%不等。在干湿比较低的生物体中，氮含量约占干重的9-11%；1-4%为水样；中间群体中有6-8%，如毛齿动物。年平均磷含量范围从蚤类的1.48%到虹吸管类的0.14%不等。各组的碳水化合物含量均较低，平均低于干重的1%。
A one year study was made of the carbon, nitrogen, phosphorus, and carbohydrate content of the major zooplankton groups from the surface to 500 m in the Sargasso Sea off Bermuda. Carbon content ranged from the yearly average of 41.6% of the dry weight of copepods to as low as 7.2% in the siphonophores. Nitrogen varied from approximately 9–11% of the dry weight of organisms with a low wet to dry weight ratio; 1–4% in the watery forms; and 6–8% in intermediate groups such as the chaetognaths. Average yearly phosphorus levels ranged from 1.48% of the dry weight in the euphausids-mysids to 0.14% in siphonophores. Carbohydrate content of all groups was low, averaging less than 1% of the dry weight.
