Moulting rates of Calanus helgolandicus: an inter-comparison of experimental methods

An inter-comparison of three commonly reported methods for estimating the stage duration of copepods was made on Calanus helgolandicus from both wild and laboratory-reared populations. These three methods have not been compared previously in contemporaneous experiments. The methods were: (1) followi...
