Preliminary study of microzooplankton herbivory in Hong Kong in summer
香港水域夏季微型浮游动物摄食研究

Two typical stations, the Port Shelter (station A) and Urmston Rcad (s tation B) in Hong Kong, were chosen as sites for phytoplankton growth and microz ooplankton herbivory studies which were completed using a semi- in situ dil ution experiment in August 2000. PFW (particle-free water) was used to dilute sea wa t er to five target dilutions of 0%, 20%, 40%, 60% and 80%. The microzooplankton g razing rate and phytoplankton growth rate were estimated by the linear regressio n of AGR (apparent growth rate) ve...
