These cycles may be particularly pronounced in pelagic ecosystems of the high-Arctic, where the seasonality in irradiance, and thus primary production, is strong. Here we report on the seasonal ecology and life strategy of a predatory planktivore in a high-Arctic fjord (Billefjorden, Svalbard ~78°N). We studied the chaetognath Parasagitta elegans (var. arctica), an abundant zooplankter of high-latitude seas, focusing on its age structure, seasonal vertical distribution, growth and timing of reproduction. The body-length data (range: 2 to 44 mm) revealed the presence of 3 size cohorts (Cohorts 0, 1 and 2), suggesting a 3 yr life span. Spring and early summer (May/June) was the main spawning season, as revealed by inspection of gonads and the presence of well-developed seminal receptacles prior to high numbers of newborns. Both Cohorts 1 and 2 reproduced, with male gonads maturing first in this hermaphrodite. Growth rates for all cohorts were highest in spring and early summer, and at this time of the year, the youngest year class (Cohort 0) was distributed near the surface where their feeding opportunities may peak. In winter, however, all cohorts were in deeper waters, suggesting seasonal migrations, possibly to follow the distributions of overwintering copepods. Scheduling of growth, maturation and reproduction in Arctic zooplankton populations is important baseline information for predictions of zooplankton responses to environmental change, particularly those associated with timing and phenology, pinpointing the need for more high-resolution studies on zooplankton annual routines.
