The nightscape of the Arctic winter shapes the diving behavior of a marine predator
Scientific ReportsPredator–prey interactions in marine ecosystems are dynamically influenced by light, as demonstrated by diel vertical migrations of low-trophic level organisms.

Frontiers in Marine ScienceDiel vertical migrations in the ocean play a key role in predator-prey dynamics and the functioning of the biological carbon pump. However, changes in ocean conditions including warming and deoxygenation threaten to significantly perturb vertical ...

Diel patterns of active vertical migration in seagrass meiofauna
Marine Ecology Progress Series, 1986 Patterns of acbve vertical migration exhibited by sediment-associated meiofauna were examlned in a subtropical seagrass meadow. Total numbers, species composition and percentage of sediment meiofauna found to migrate were examined during two 24 h s tudes . Large numbers (>20 000h-' m-2) of harpacticoid copepods representing a substantial proporbon (>50

Toward predicting Dinophysis blooms off NW Iberia: a decade of events [PDF]
, 2016 Dinophysis acuminata and Dinophysis acuta are recurrent species off NW Iberia but their outbreaks occur under different conditions. A decade (2004-2013) of weekly data for each species at two sentinel stations located at the entrance of Rias de Aveiro-AV

Diel dynamics of heleoplankton in relation to some physico-chemical attributes of water in an aquaculture tank in Guwahati, Assam [PDF]
, 2012 Diurnal fluctuation of the phytoplankton and zooplankton population (numerical densities) and the physicochemical attributes of water are studied in an aquaculture pond at Guwahati, Assam. In the 24 hour diel cycle, the phytoplankton and zooplankton show

Diel Vertical Migration inDaphina Iumholtzi(Sars)
Journal of Freshwater Ecology, 2004 ABSTRACT In light of recent studies which suggest that the extreme morphology of Daphnia lumholtzi (Sars) does not effectively deter all vertebrate predators, we sought to determine if this species exhibits behavioral responses that, may minimize planktivory by fish.
