   The data below represent weight-specific grazing rates of 
   mesozooplankton as a function of day of year, size fractions
   of animals and depth interval for the time-series cruise TT012 of  
   the EqPac study.   All experiments were carried out at equator. 
   Grazing was measured with the gut fluorescence technique. Details 
   are given in the EqPac Protocols.  Mean GCRC (gut clearance rate constant)
   of this cruise (0.030 min-1) was used.
   The grazing values are the means of 2-5 pseudoreplicates from each 
   tow.  Contact Hans Dam for additional pseudoreplicate values.
