Based on estimations of carbon
demand (Table 5), and assuming an error associated with a seasonally
varying uncertainty, we can estimate the average annual carbon
demand. Zooplankton carbon demand due to respiration in the upper
200 m, was 12.14 ± 1.79 g C yr−1 m−2 in Cabrera, while in Sóller was 7.17 ± 1.32 g C yr−1 m−2.
