Journal of Plankton Research publishes innovative papers that significantly advance the field of plankton research. All kinds of marine, brackish and freshwater plankton are considered: viruses, bacteria, fungi, phytoplankton, and zooplankton, including meroplankton and ichthyoplankton. The main topics covered are: plankton ecology and behaviour, including model studies; plankton physiology, including experimental results; genetics and taxonomy of planktonic organisms; biological properties and content of natural waters as they impinge directly on plankton physiology and ecology; and
development and testing of new methods for plankton research. Investigations carried out using interdisciplinary methods are particularly encouraged.
