Life history and biogeography of Calanus copepods in the Arctic Ocean: An individual-based modeling study (2012, background): “These different reproduction strategies are also known as income-breeder (food-dependent reproduction) and capital-breeder (lipid-based reproduction) (Varpe et al., 2009).”
Grazing, egg production, and biochemical evidence of differences in the life strategies of Calanus finmarchicus, C. glacialis and C. hyperboreus in Disko Bay, western Greenland (2011, background): “However, if the bloom occurs at a later time, the importance of lipid-fueled early-spawned eggs in recruitment decreases relative to later-spawned eggs fueled by feeding (Varpe et al. 2009), which may also be true if the bloom is prolonged (C. finmarchicus).”
Timing of reproductive events in the marine copepod Calanus glacialis: a pan-Arctic perspective (2013, background): “Feeding late in the season would be particularly advantageous if the predation risk is low at this time of the year (Varpe et al. 2009).”
Non-consumptive mortality in copepods: occurrence of Calanus spp. carcasses in the Arctic Ocean during winter (2014, background): “Future studies should aim to assess the importance of non-lipid compounds for surviving periods of food limitation, a direction also suggested for studies of capital breeding (Varpe et al. , 2009).”
In the dark: A review of ecosystem processes during the Arctic polar night (2015, background): “Diapause, a state of reduced metabolism, combined with build-up of large lipid reserves, are major features of polar life cycles (Hagen, 1999; Varpe et al., 2009).”
Body size in freshwater planktonic crustaceans: an overview of extrinsic determinants and modifying influences of biotic interactions (2011, background): “Despite the costs of acquiring and carrying reserves through winter, capital breeding was generally better than income breeding under various temporal-trophic scenarios modelled by Varpe et al. (2009).”
Fitness and phenology: annual routines and zooplankton adaptations to seasonal cycles (2012, background): “Mode of egg production (capital- versus income-breeding) differs between species, and can be state-dependent within a species (Varpe et al., 2009).”
