      <abstract>Using a Multiple Opening and Closing Nets and Environmental
      Sensing System (MOCNESS), zooplankton samples were collected at selected
      depth intervals in the water column. Zooplankton samples were screened
      for a fixed suite of taxa. Depending on the organism, counts were made of
      life stage or size class. Sampling was conducted in April-June 2001 and
      2002. The general sampling area includes: the continental shelf to the
      west of the Antarctic Peninsula extending from the northern tip of
      Adelaide Island to the southern portion of Alexander Island, and
      Marguerite Bay. Ship, Cruise, Dates R/V Laurence M Gould, LMG0104,
