Chlorophyll (Chl) categorization in high and low levels. Significant Chl/ingestion rate (IR) relationship was assessed through a functional non-linear regression which showed 1 µg Chl L−1 significantly delimited (F1,35 = 6.43, P-value = 0.02, n = 36) the transition between the ascending and stable IR curve (A). Relative contribution observed at 10 m depth was 41.7% (H) and 58.3% (L).
