Seasonal changes in organic composition and caloric value of an arctic marine amphipod, Onisimus (=Boeckosimus) affinis / by J. A. Percy and J. Walbridge.: Fs97-25/46E-PDF

"This report contains data on seasonal changes in gross biochemical composition and caloric value of the benthic marine amphipod Onisimus affinis. The samples were collected in the Eskimo Lakes, adjacent to the Mackenzie Delta in the Northwest Territories. Changes in ash, protein, lipid, carbohydrate and chitin content were examined. Results are expressed both in terms of percent dry tissue weight and as dry weight per "standard" 10 mm animal. Regression equations relating head length to body length and body length to dry weight and ash-free dry weight are also presented"--Abstract, page iv.
