Abstract
Tackx, M.; Polk, P. (1986). Effect of incubation time and concentration of animals in grazing experiments using a narrow size range of particles. Proceedings of the Second International Conference on Copepoda 1984: 604-609
Three concentrations of A. tonsa adults were allowed to feed on a narrow size range suspension of particles. Sampling was done at 4-hour intervals during 24 hours. It is shown that both animal concentration and incubation time considerably influence the obtained ingestion rates and filtering-spectra. These results are discussed in relation to different calculation methods and models.
