Coastal embayments are ecologically significant ecosystems increasingly affected by human activities and climate change pressures. This study investigated the spatial and temporal dynamics of the zooplankton community in Cam Ranh Bay under varying environmental conditions by chronically sampling in consecutive days, weeks and seasons. The bay exhibited high zooplankton diversity, with 188 species recorded across seven phyla. Arthropoda, particularly Copepoda, contributed over 65% of the total sp
