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.

Mean Field Games for Diel Vertical Migration with Diffusion. [PDF]
Bull Math Biol, 2023 AbstractWe present a theoretical framework, based on differential mean field games, for expressing diel vertical migration in the ocean as a game with a continuum of players. In such a game, each agent partially controls its own state by adjusting its vertical velocity but the vertical position in a water column is also subject to random fluctuations ...

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 ...

Arctic complexity: a case study on diel vertical migration of zooplankton. [PDF]
J Plankton Res, 2014 Diel vertical migration (DVM) of zooplankton is a global phenomenon, characteristic of both marine and limnic environments. At high latitudes, patterns of DVM have been documented, but rather little knowledge exists regarding which species perform this ecologically important behaviour.

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.

Diel vertical migration of Arctic zooplankton during the polar night. [PDF]
Biol Lett, 2009 High-latitude environments show extreme seasonal variation in physical and biological variables. The classic paradigm of Arctic marine ecosystems holds that most biological processes slow down or cease during the polar night. One key process that is generally assumed to cease during winter is diel vertical migration (DVM) of zooplankton.

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.
