| Abstract | Egg production experiments were performed with three dominant copepod species during the iron fertilization experiment EIFEX in the beginning of 2004. In response to the iron fertilization a diatom bloom developed with chl a concentrations up to 3,1 μg Chl a/L. Samples were taken inside and outside the fertilized patch, subsequently referred to as „in patch“ and „out patch“. Rhincalanus gigas, Calanus simillimus and Pleuromamma sp. females were caught with Bongo nets and incubated individually for up to 48 hours in 100 ml beakers with filtered seawater. All females were included in the calculation of the egg production rates, whether they spawned or not. |
