Forecasting of cyclopoida number in the Samara river floodplain lake in 2006 by means of autoregression models

Seasonal dynamics of number of populations of planktonic Copepoda in the Samara River floodplain lake in 2006 is studied. Stochastic models for modeling and forecasting of number of a Cyclops were constructed. It turns out that among these models AR(1) model forecasts better than the other ones do.
