Ann Bucklin organizes special issue in the ICES Journal of Marine Science

Patterns of Biodiversity of Marine Zooplankton Based on Molecular Analysis is the latest themed set of articles from​ ICES Journal of Marine Science. (See https://academic.oup.com/icesjms/issue/78/9#1302581-6403476 ). This collection showcases the ongoing refinement of molecular approaches for analysis of zooplankton diversity.

ICES (International Council for the Exploration of the Sea) commissioned a cartoon by Bas Köhler and announced the publication (see: https://www.ices.dk/news-and-events/news-archive/news/Pages/TSZooplankton.aspx).

The motivators for the special issue are members of the SCOR WG157 MetaZooGene (see: https://metazoogene.org/ ), chaired by Ann Bucklin, who also authored the introductory paper, New insights into biodiversity, biogeography, ecology, and evolution of marine zooplankton based on molecular approaches (see https://doi.org/10.1093/icesjms/fsab198) with co-authors, Katja T.C.A. Peijnenburg (NL), Ksenia Kosobokova (RU), and Ryuji J. Machida (TW).
