U.S. GLOBEC: Copepod Population Biology On George's Bank - A Component Of U.S. GLOBEC: Ichthyoplankton And Zooplankton In The George's Bank Region

9317506 Miller博士将参与GLOBEC Georges Ban大尺度调查的管理和数据分析。这将包括：(1)在伍兹霍尔建立和管理乔治斯银行浮游生物技术小组（GBPTG），以及(2)利用大规模调查收集的非常大的样本集研究finmarchicus， pseudoalanus moultoni和pseudoalanus newmani的种群生物学。在对桡足类动物的具体研究中，他将使用大规模调查保存的样本集，加上特殊保存的样本和亚样本，来研究C. finmarchicus和Pseudocalanus sp .的生活史、生长和生产生物学的各个方面，如季节、温度和分层、岸上或岸上的位置、食物供应和水文。目标将包括综合估计C. finmarchicus和pseudoalanus sp .的次生产量，以便在乔治海岸的季节、年份和地点之间进行比较。

9317506 Miller Dr. Miller will participate in the management and data analysis of the GLOBEC Georges Ban Broad Scale Survey. This will include (1) work on the formation and management of the Georges Bank Plankton Technical Group (GBPTG) at Woods Hole, and (2) studies of the population biology of Calanus finmarchicus, Pseudocalanus moultoni, and Pseudocalanus newmani using the very large sample set to be collected by the Broad Scale Survey. In specific studies of copepods he will use the broad scale survey preserved sample set, plus specially preserved samples and subsamples, to examine aspects of C. finmarchicus and Pseudocalanus spp. life history, growth, and production biology as functions of season, temperature and stratification, location over or off the bank, food availability, and hydrography. Goals will include comprehensive estimation of secondary production by C. finmarchicus and Pseudocalanus spp. to allow comparisons among seasons, years, and sites across Georges Bank.
