dc.description.abstractFactors affecting egg production and hatching success of the copepod Acartia tonsa Dana were determined by measuring environmental variables and daily egg production of field collected females in the laboratory. During five periods between April and November of 1981, three day experiments were run at ambient particle concentrations and two dilutions of 1) natural particles collected over the water column, and 2) some modification of 1). Other A. tonsa were fed Thalassiosira weissflogii to isolate the effects of temperature and salinity on egg production.en_US
