  • Although tidal current affects the distribution of zooplankton significantly, its impacts were usually ignored when the studios on the zooplankton abundance were conducted even in the Yellow Sea where tidal current was very strong. Furthermore, information on the tidal impacts was very limited in the Yellow Sea. In this study, the tidal current effects on the abundances of copepod genera Acartia, Calanopia, Calanus, Centropages, Corycaeus, Labidocera, Paracalanus, Tortanus in a fixed sampling station near the Sonanjido (Island) were studied. The abundance of copepods collected by the same sampling method nab highest when the tidal current was fastest at 2 or 3 hours after the high or low tide.
