Sustained meroplankton observations - a basin-scale approach. Low-cost samplers for deep-ocean observations (colonization modules coupled with larval traps) deployed at moorings or mounted on landers of the EMSO-ERIC distributed observatories and covering different water masses (Project LO3CATED; Génio, Cunha and Young). NACW: North Atlantic Central Water; AIW: Antarctic Intermediate Water; MOW: Mediterranean Outflow Water; NADW: North Atlantic Deep Water; MABW: Modified Antarctic Bottom Water.
