Abstrakt:	Measures the ultraviolet (UV) and visible transparency of zooplankton and the waters they inhabit and relates these data to the ecologically relevant parameters of sighting distance and minimum attainable depth. Characteristics of oceanic zooplankton; Effects of UV absorption on sighting distance and minimum attainable depth; Cause of decreased UV transparency in epipelagic zooplankton.
