Zooplankton Montage

Technical Manager: David Johns (temp) MBA

The CPR Survey, part of the Marine Biological Association (MBA, https://www.cprsurvey.org) have been running ring tests successfully every two years since 2015 from their base at Plymouth, UK.  This scheme undertakes quality control for the analysis of zooplankton samples through ring tests of pre-determined species and written quizzes. 

The MBA is a world leader in plankton research and has a unique plankton data set stretching over 80 years which has been collected using the Continuous Plankton Recorder (CPR). The MBA has global zooplankton identification expertise from the major oceans.

We are pleased to announce details of our next Zooplankton Intercomparison Exercise, planned for 2026.  Please click on the link here for further details and how to apply
