Diel feeding activity and intensity in the European eel Anguilla anguilla (L.) during an annual cycle in a Cantabrian stream [PDF]
Knowledge and Management of Aquatic Ecosystems, 2008 Diel and seasonal shifts in the feeding activity and intensity of a riverine stock of European eels, Anguilla anguilla (L.), were assessed in the Río LLorín, a right-side tributary of the Río Esva drainage (northwestern Spain).

A Computational Analysis Based on Automatic Digitization of Movement Tracks Reveals the Altered Diurnal Behavior of the Western Flower Thrips, Frankliniella occidentalis, Suppressed in PKG Expression [PDF]
InsectsThe western flower thrips, Frankliniella occidentalis, a worldwide insect pest with its polyphagous feeding behavior and capacity to transmit viruses, follows a diurnal rhythmicity driven by expression of the circadian clock genes.

Diel feeding activity of Abudefduf saxatilis (Perciformes: Pomacentridae) on southwestern Atlantic reefs [PDF]
Neotropical Ichthyology, 2023 Feeding ecology studies are crucial for understanding energy flow in reef ecosystems. In this study, we used an integrative approach to investigate the diel-feeding ecology of the sergeant-major Abudefduf saxatilis.

Effects of hydrographic variability on the spatial, seasonal and diel diving patterns of southern elephant seals in the eastern Weddell Sea. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2010 Weddell Sea hydrography and circulation is driven by influx of Circumpolar Deep Water (CDW) from the Antarctic Circumpolar Current (ACC) at its eastern margin. Entrainment and upwelling of this high-nutrient, oxygen-depleted water mass within the Weddell
