Next Steps
• Work on parameters for model for C. finmarchicus;
development of general set for all of NW Atlantic
• 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 Saumweber and Durbin functions for
potential diapause duration
• 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
