A picture of zooplankton- water fleas and ticks do exist
Zooplankton grazing of microplastic can accelerate global loss of ocean oxygen, and could decrease water column oxygen inventory by as much as 10% in the North Pacific, showing the potential for physical pollution to exacerbate the consequences of climate warming. nature.com/articles/s4146โฆ

Great footage of some basking sharks spotted just off the coast of Cork. They can measure up to 12m (39ft) making them the 2nd largest living shark on the planet. Incredibly for their size, they feed almost exclusively on microscopic animals called zooplankton. v.redd.it/wcw235i5j2v61

Vegans of Reddit, how do you reconcile using petroleum based products (fuels, plastics, etc) whith the knowledge that it was derived, at least in part, from zooplankton and potentially other animals?
The Fried egg jellyfish found in the Atlantic Ocean and Aegean Sea. They eat zooplankton and other jellyfish and only live for half a year.
How is a jellyfish a cnidarian and also a zooplankton?
I was curious about what plankton ate (from watching Plankton eat holographic meatloaf on Spongebob). I read that Phytoplankton eat sunlight, but Zooplankton are more complicated eat physical objects. The web page said jellyfish, and members of a few other phyla, are Zooplankton as well. I was confused because Cnidaria are animals and Zooplankton are protists correct? This seems like conflicting information, so I wanted to ask you all.
Also, if this is meant for another sub, like Askbio, let me know.

Researchers have successfully created larger-than-usual strains of zooplankton โ which are used in fish nurseries โ by creating mutations with a heavy ion beam. The new strains of zooplankton could contribute to improving the survival rate and optimizing the growth of juvenile fish in aquaculture. riken.jp/en/news_pubs/resโฆ
Day 25: Titanichthys. Famous member of the Placoderm family, the armoured fish. Unlike its more infamous cousin that I'll be drawing tomorrow, this guy fed on small shoals of fish, krill, and zooplankton, similar to a modern-day baleen whale.

Question: Night Fishing with Vexilar and Zooplankton
Thanks ahead of time for the replies!
This is my first year on the ice and I have come across this issue a few nights. The Vexilar works amazing during the day, but at night, I see this crazy amount of green feedback. With some googling, I assume it is zooplankton. Gain is set to 0, and no one else was on the lake, so I can rule out flasher interference.
Is there any good way to fish through this clutter on the vexilar? Possibly cranking up the gain so my lure and fish are red/orange in thr absolute sea of green?

Whale populations in New York Harbor are booming! A few cetaceans appeared in 2011, but now they're in the hundreds, surprising scientists and tourists alike. As water quality improved and pollution levels fell, tiny oceanic life-forms such as algae and zooplankton bounced back, attracting whales. nationalgeographic.com/anโฆ
The ocean captures twice as much carbon dioxide as previously thought. Phytoplankton on the surface of the ocean absorb carbon dioxide, and are eaten by zooplankton, carrying the CO2 deeper into the ocean. Levels of CO2 in the atmosphere would be much higher if not for the biological carbon pump. sciencefocus.com/news/theโฆ
Does anyone know what this small crustacean is? I found this in a freshwater pond with daphnia and other zooplankton. I am in northern Italy and this is 2mm at most. (Sorry if its hard to see but its very difficult to focus the camera)

Scientist looking for a camera powerful enough to record video of zooplankton jetting by underwater
I have a boat that funnels water through a flume/tube as it jets around, and I need be able to record microorganisms called Zooplankton as they are funneled through to be identified later. Obviously I need to be able to slow the water down a bit, and perhaps I can magnify the contents of the flume through some creative glass wall situation but what I really need is some recommendations on what kind of camera is powerful enough to record these microscopic, aquatic organisms in detail great enough to identify them.
Please help me! I am just a noob trying to learn about cameras for science
