Next Steps
• Test LAW model against C. finmarchicus life cycle data
sets in the NW Atlantic. Does the model reproduce
variability in individual years?
• Test refined and alternative hypotheses - Additional
conditions required?
• Examine mechanisms for emergence from dormancy:
parameterization of metabolic limitation of diapause
duration (Saumweber and Durbin, 2006)
• Examine influence of climate change scenarios on
Calanus life cycle and population dynamics
• Further testing with time series observations, include
measures of lipid levels in CIV and CV
