Predator-enhanced diel vertical migration in a planktonic dinoflagellate [PDF]

open access: yesMarine Ecology Progress Series, 2012
Diel vertical migration (DVM) is a common and conspicuous behavior amongst planktonic organisms. In the case of dinoflagellates, both light and nutrients have been shown to regulate DVM, although the role of predators (grazers) has been understudied. Here we report the results of an experimental study using a system of 'plankton mini-towers' to examine

Enhancing the Chemical Reactivity of Graphene through Substrate Engineering

open access: yesSmall, EarlyView.
This review highlights methods to enhance the reactivity of graphene through substrate engineering, focusing on strain and charge doping. Strains induced by nanoparticles, metal crystal orientations, or stretchable polymers increase the reactivity of graphene.

Evidence of Diel Vertical Migration of Mesopelagic Sound-Scattering Organisms in the Arctic

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2017
While sound scattering layers (SSLs) have been described previously from ice-covered waters in the Arctic, the existence of a viable mesopelagic community that also includes mesopelagic fishes in the Arctic has been questioned.

The Demographic Benefits of Diel Vertical Migration by Zooplankton [PDF]

open access: yesEcological Monographs, 1990
Three types of diel vertical migration behavior were expressed within a fjord population of the calanoid copepod Pseudocalanus newmani: (1) reverse migration (nocturnal descent), (2) normal migration (nocturnal ascent), and (3) no detectable migration. Reverse migration by P. newmani occurred in all three study years, but only at a deep (185 m) station

Organic Transistor‐Based Neuromorphic Electronics and Their Recent Applications

open access: yesSmall Methods, EarlyView.
This review highlights recent progress in organic neuromorphic electronics, showing how organic semiconductors enable synaptic and neuronal functions with low power, mechanical flexibility, and biocompatibility. By bridging materials, devices, and systems, organic platforms are accelerating brain‐inspired computing toward applications in artificial ...

Contrasting diel vertical migration patterns in Salpa fusiformis populations [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Plankton Research, 2017
7 pages, 2 figures, 1 table Vertically stratified zooplankton sampling at three locations in the Catalan Sea demonstrated that the coexistence of two diel vertical migration patterns in Salpa fusiformis populations. Salps migrated to the surface during the day (reverse migration) at one station while they swam to surface layers at night (nocturnal ...

Advancing Single‐Walled Carbon Nanotubes toward Next‐Generation Electronic Materials: The Critical Roles of Purity and Processability

open access: yesSmall Methods, EarlyView.
Single‐walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) are promising for a wide range of applications. In particular, their exceptional electrical conductivity positions them as potential alternatives to traditional metal conductors. This review identifies the key mechanisms governing their conductivity within composites and proposes practical pathways for translating
