Abstract
The current study was completed in Khor Al-Zubair for a period of one year, starting from January until December 2024, with three stations. The first station is located on the coordinates shown (30o19'20.2''N 47o49'02.6''E) near the mangrove nursery, the second station is located on the coordinates shown (30o13'08.9''N 47o51'54.0''E) near the command of the Iraqi naval force, and the third station is located on the coordinates shown (30o09'10.2''N 47o54'09.5''E) near the free zone. Zooplankton samples were collected by means of special collection nets with a mesh size of 50μm and a hole diameter of 30cm, and another with a mesh size of 100μm and a hole diameter of 40cm. The density was measured using some environmental factors such as water temperature, salinity, pH and current speed.
