Sampling Methods

Samples of 5 zooplankton taxa including copepods and amphipods were collected at six stations (P1, P4, P5, P6, P7, NLEG3), using MIK nets (1200 μm with 500 μm cod end), Macroplankton trawl (multiple mesh sizes along the net, tapering to 8 mm at its end) and Bongo nets (64 and 180 μm). Samples were sorted into species and stage/size groups onboard the ship and immediately frozen at -80 ºC.

Method step description:

  1. Lipid classes were analysed at the Alfred Wegener Institute, Bremerhaven, Germany. All samples were freeze-dried for at least 24 h prior to lipid extraction (-45 °C, 0.1 mbar). Zooplankton were homogenized mechanically using a Potter-Elvehjem homogenizer. Total lipids were extracted using a modified procedure from Folch et al. (1957) with dichloromethane/methanol (2:1, v/v). The extracted lipids were cleaned with 0.88 % potassium chloride solution. Lipid class analysis was performed directly on the extracted lipids (Graeve and Janssen, 2009) via high performance liquid chromatography. Lipid classes were distinguished into neutral (i.e. storage) lipids and polar (i.e. membrane) lipids. Folch, J., Lees, M., and Stanley, G.H.S. (1957).
