What is Phytoplankton and zooplankton of the Westport River Estuary, Massachusetts (USA) about?

## Zooplankton and phytoplankton samples were simultaneously collected at approximately biweekly intervals over most of an annual cycle in the Westport River Estuary, Massachusetts. Phytoplankton numbers were overwhelmingly dominated throughout the study by athecate nanoplankton c 5 pm in diameter. The zooplankton was primarily composed of copepod nauplii. Periods of occurrence of other zooplankters such as adult copepods, marine cladocerans, meroplankters and ctenophores were similar to those recorded for adjacent estuaries. Our results emphasize the abundance of smaller plankters that have been historically undersampled.
