During the last five decades, zooplankton of the Aral Sea has been undergoing dramatic changes. Mineralization in the western Large Aral increased from 10 ppt in 1960 to 116 ppt and 211 ppt in the western and eastern basins, correspondingly, in 2008. Concurrently the crucial changes have been occurring in zooplankton community manifesting in the disappearance of most native species

The studies were carried out on September 27–30, 2007, in the area of the Ob estuarine frontal zone and over the adjacent inner Kara Sea shelf. Based upon the latitudinal changes in the salinity, the 100 nautical mile wide estuarine frontal zone was marked out. The frontal zone was inhabited by a specific zooplankton community dominated by species that occurred

ABSTRACT In September 2006, field studies were performed in the course of the seventh regular expedition of the Shirshov Institute of Oceanology of the Russian Academy of Sciences within the frameworks of the program for multidisciplinary studies and monitoring of the condition of the hydrophysical, hydrochemical, and hydrobiological systems of the Aral Sea under the anthropogenic crisis. This program has been implemented together with a series of scientific institutions of Uzbekistan and Kazakhstan starting in 2002. The results of the previous expeditions have been presented earlier in a series of publications (for example, [3–6, 12, 13]).
