dc.description.abstractThe accuracy of using CUFES (continuous underway fish egg sampler) as an alternative method to vertical bongo nets for sampling zooplankton abundance and distribution is assessed. Analysis is based on 14 taxonomic groups representing a wide variety of organism sizes. Samples were collected in March 2004 in the southern Benguela, South Africa. In total, 64 CUFES samples were collected while the ship was underway and 32 CUFES and vertical bongo net on-station samples were collected along four inshore-offshore transects. The frequencies of obtaining the taxa using the CUFES and vertical bongo net samples were the same for small copepods, amphipod adults and juveniles, and Nannocalanus.en_ZA
