“…The analysis of the similarity of the São Luís and São José de Ribamar tide-control structures shows that there was homogeneity of the zooplankton, that is, regardless of the influences of the anthropic agents, such as the tidal containment structure itself, the communities are probably able to maintain equilibrium. Finally, this study found zooplanktonic groups like those of Nunes et al (2020) on the coast of Maranhão.…”

Zooplankton is a group of organisms that can help to understand the quality of aquatic ecosystems, as they are responsible for transforming energy matter, thus making it available to other links, making them important in aquatic trophodynamics. This study analyzed spatial and temporal variations in zooplankton communities found in two tidal control structures on Ilha do Maranhão, northeastern Brazil. Sampling took place from September 2017 to July 2018. Abiotic parameters (temperature, salinity, and transparency) and plankton samples were recorded monthly throughout the study period at each sampling site. The results found for the abiotic parameters showed a well-defined pattern, with a clear division between the dry and rainy periods. Forty taxa represented the zooplankton community of the São Luís tidal control structure, and from São José de Ribamar by 21 taxa, represented mainly by copepods, ichthyoplankton, foraminifera, polychaetes, and mollusks. The analysis of ecological indices of richness, evenness, and diversity showed a difference in the distribution of organisms among the study areas. We identified an important influence of the physicochemical parameters on the zooplankton communities of São Luís and São José de Ribamar, according to the statistical analyzes used in this study.

“…Assim, os diversos organismos que compõe a fauna desta área, os zooplanctôns estão entre os mais diversos e abundantes (Nunes et al 2020). Isto se deve ao fato de serem compostos por pequenos animais pertencentes a grandes filos, como Arthropoda, Cnidaria, Foraminifera, Chaetognatha e outros, os quais desempenham papel fundamental na ciclagem de nutrientes e na transferência de carbono no meio marinho, sendo funcionalmente considerados como elos entre produtores (fitoplâncton), e consumidores sequentes, dentro da cadeia trófica marinha (Leandro et al 2014;De-Carli et al 2017).…”

Na zona costeira amazônica ocorrem zooplânctons gelatinosos que possuem importância na cadeia trófica marinha e são bioindicadores de qualidade ambiental. O objetivo deste estudo foi verificar a composição destes organismos e suas interações com as variáveis físico-químicas da água no município de Salinópolis/PA, seguindo metodologia básica para coleta de zooplâncton, o que totalizou o registro de 141 espécimes. Observou-se que estes organismos sofrem grande influência sazonal, principalmente, da salinidade.

The equatorial Atlantic is characterized by its high abundance of zooplankton. However, starting point studies concerning the species composition in the northern Brazilian continental shelf are still scarce. Species cataloging studies can help to know the diversity of this ecosystem and, consequently, develop conservation studies and strategies for natural resources management. Thus, this work aims to characterize the species composing the zooplanktonic communities present on the continental shelf of Maranhão. Ninety-six taxa distributed among the Radiolaria, Myozoa, Foraminifera, Cnidaria, Mollusca, Annelida, Arthropoda, Bryozoa, Chaetognatha, Echinodermata, Chordata, and other groups, were recorded. The composition of mesozooplankton showed a wide distribution, indicating that the species are finding the appropriate conditions for their development.
