Long-Term Study of Zooplankton Biomass in the South-Eastern Part of the Gulf of Trieste (Adriatic Sea)Malej, Jan (Avtor) Kogovšek, Tjaša (Avtor) Vodopivec, Martin (Avtor) Francé, Janja (Avtor) Mozetič, Patricija (Avtor) Malej, Matevž (Avtor) Malej, Alenka (Avtor) net zooplanktondry masstime serieschlorophyll ajellyfish bloomsWe present a dataset of zooplankton biomass spanning more than four decades (1974–2019). The dry mass of zooplankton ranged from below 10 to almost 100 mg m-3, was highest in 1989–2002 and declined thereafter. The interannual variability of zooplankton dry mass in the period 1993–2018 was compared with the regional atmospheric index WeMOi, chlorophyll a and frequency of jellyfish blooms. Increased dry mass values were associated with a positive phase of the regional atmospheric index WeMOi, higher chlorophyll a and a lower frequency of jellyfish blooms.20252026-06-24 15:25:54Delo ni kategorizirano30444UDK: 5, 574ISSN pri članku: 1408-533XDOI: 10.19233/ASHN.2025.17COBISS_ID: 240627203slImetniki avtorskih pravic na prispevkih so avtorji.
