II. Scope & Description

Journal of Plankton Research publishes innovative papers that significantly advance the field of plankton research, and in particular, our understanding of plankton dynamics. The main topics covered are: •plankton ecology and behaviour, including model and theoretical studies •plankton physiology, including experimental results •molecular biology, genetics and taxonomy of planktonic organisms •biological properties and content of natural waters as they impinge directly on plankton physiology and ecology •development and testing of new methods for plankton research All kinds of marine, brackish and freshwater plankton are considered: viruses, bacteria, fungi, phytoplankton, and zooplankton, including meroplankton and ichthyoplankton.
