Evidence of diel vertical migration in Mnemiopsis leidyi. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2014 The vertical distribution and migration of plankton organisms may have a large impact on their horizontal dispersal and distribution, and consequently on trophic interactions.

Differences in the trophic ecology of micronekton driven by diel vertical migration. [PDF]
Limnol Oceanogr, 2019 Many species of micronekton perform diel vertical migrations (DVMs), which ultimately contributes to carbon export to the deep sea. However, not all micronekton species perform DVM, and the nonmigrators, which are often understudied, have different ...

The impact of diel vertical migration on fatty acid patterns and allocation in Daphnia magna [PDF]
PeerJ, 2020 In freshwater zooplankton diel vertical migration (DVM) is a widespread predator-avoidance behavior that is induced by kairomones released from fish. Thereby zooplankton reduces predation by fish by staying in deep and dark colder strata during daytime ...

Protocol to produce diel vertical movement patterns from the BirdScan MR1 vertical-looking biological radar [PDF]
STAR ProtocolsSummary: Vertical-looking radars (VLRs) detect individual flying animals up to ∼2 km above ground and characterize their flight track, timing, wing movement, size, and shape.

Diel Vertical Migration and Transport Pattern of Larvae and Juveniles of the Small Yellow Croaker (Larimichthys polyactis) in the Yangtze River Estuary [PDF]
AnimalsIn order to understand the diel vertical migration and transport pattern during their early life stages, the vertical distribution of larvae and juveniles of the small yellow croaker (Larimichthys polyactis) in the Yangtze River estuary was investigated.

Seasonal habitat use and diel vertical migration in female spurdog in Nordic waters [PDF]
Movement EcologyBackground Studying habitat use and vertical movement patterns of individual fish over continuous time and space is innately challenging and has therefore largely remained elusive for a wide range of species.

Seasonal and diel patterns in Black Sea harbour porpoise acoustic activity in 2020–2022 [PDF]
Ecology and EvolutionThe Black Sea is a semi‐enclosed inland sea with an unevenly distributed extensive coastal shelf area and anoxic deep waters. It is inhabited by common and bottlenose dolphins, as well as harbour porpoises, all represented by local subspecies.

Animal behavior is central in shaping the realized diel light niche
Communications Biology, 2022 Investigating the light as experienced by zooplankton undergoing synchronized diel vertical migration in an Arctic fjord around the spring equinox provides insights into how animal behavior shapes the Realized Diel Light Niche.
