dc.description.abstract | A total of 700 capelin stomachs collected during the feeding period in August
1989 by 24-h fishery were analyzed for each 3-cm length groups. The number
of prey categories consumed by the Barents sea capelin showed a tendency to
increase with increasing fish length up to 12 cm. Calanus finmarchicus was
the major contributor in the diet (66.39%) of length group 6-8.9 cm. Capelin
in length group 9-11.9 cm had mainly fed on Calanus finmarchicus (33.53% ),
Parathemisto abyssorum (14.54%) and Thysanoessa raschii (28.04%) while the
two species, Thysanoessa inermis and Thysanoessa raschii occupied 95.2% of
the stomach contents weight in length group 12-14.9 cm. The evening peaks
in feeding occured approximately for all length groups and the feeding was at
minimum during the midday. The daily ration during the first half of August
is estimated between 1.47% and 2.0% of fish body weight. Accordingly, these
data gives about 4116 tonnes as the daily consumption of zooplankton by capelin
stock at the Goose Bank area. | no_NO |
