Depending upon the depth at the time of sampling, samples were taken every 2 meters starting at 1 m down to the bottom, which varied from 19 to 13 meter depending upon where we anchored. The samples were taken with a 30 cm diameter plankton net with 335 um mesh plankton netting. In almost all cases replicate vertical tows were taken with the length varying on the depth of the lake. The entire sample was surveyed for the 3 large species- D. middendorffiana, Heterocope, and Holopedium. All of the samples were counted and enumerated by Sun Yong.
