  abstract = {{M}etazooplankton abundance, biomass (<80 µm, 200-500 µm and >500 µm) and community structure in the {A}he atoll were studied together with their relationships with environmental factors (temperature, salinity, wind) and trophic factors (phytoplankton, bacteria, heterotrophic nanoflagellates ({HNF}) and ciliates) during three periods in 2008-2009. {M}eroplankton, mainly bivalve and gastropod larvae, was dominant. {H}oloplankton was dominated by copepods, the main species being {O}ithona spp., {P}aracalanus parvus, {C}lausocalanus spp., {C}orycaeus spp., {A}cartia fossae and {U}ndinula vulgaris. {T}he results suggest a clear wind influence on the structure and horizontal distribution of the zooplankton communities. {T}he metazooplankton appeared to be controlled mainly by food resources, suggesting a bottom-up control. {T}he low nanophytoplankton biomass in contrast to the high abundance of picophytoplankton, {HNF} and nano-particle grazers (mainly {O}ithona spp., {P}aracalanus and bivalve larvae) highlighted the importance of the microbial loop in the food web.},
