(a)Scatter plots of total density (TAD) and<br />
total biomass (TAB) vs. observed POC<br />
flux using time lags presented in Table 1<br />
(b) average body size vs. POC flux based <strong>on</strong><br />
time lags in Table 1; and body size<br />
distributi<strong>on</strong>s for the top three most<br />
abundant phyla during an example<br />
(c) higher-than average flux period in June<br />
1990 and<br />
(d) a lower-than-average flux period in June<br />
1992. The Annelida typically were higher<br />
in abundance than the Arthropoda (P<br />
0.05, SI).<br />
