Table 1 Abundances of chaetognaths used in the simulations and equivalent in situ values derived from literature

From: Behaviour-dependent predation risk in swimming zooplankters

Chaetognath abundance

Model

Equivalent to

C 1

1 ind. V d  −1

Approximately 10 ind. m−3 (typical year-round abundance)

C 2

5 ind. V d  −1

Approximately 40 ind. m−3 (typical of peak periods)

C 3

17 ind. V d  −1

Approximately 140 ind. m−3 (limit case of excess abundance)
