On drift and diel vertical migration of bottom invertebrates of the Amur. [Translation from: Zoologicheskie Zhurnal 42 1601-1612, 1963.] [PDF]

open access: yes, 1963
Planktobenthos was sampled in 1957-58 in the river Amur. A determination of the kind of organisms drifting in the mass of water of the Amur was carried out.

Increased phototaxis in the field leads to enhanced diel vertical migration [PDF]

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography, 1994
Downward and upward displacement velocity of diel vertical migration in Lake Maarsseveen by the hybrid Daphnia galeata × hyalina, was correlated with the relative change in light intensity at dawn and dusk, indicating a phototactic basis for these migrations. The significance of the regression function increased over a period of 4 yr.

Riverine Migration Success of Salmonid Smolts Following Their Entrainment in a Hydropower Off‐Channel Diversion in an Upland River

open access: yesRiver Research and Applications, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Salmonid fishes typically express anadromy. During their juvenile riverine emigration, their downstream movements can be inhibited by hydropower schemes that entrain fish in their intakes. Here, the riverine migration success of smolts of brown trout Salmo trutta (“trout smolt”) and Atlantic salmon Salmo salar smolts (“salmon smolt”) was ...

Evidence of the selection of tidal streams by northern rock sole (Lepidopsetta polyxystra) for transport in the eastern Bering Sea [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Depth data from archival tags on northern rock sole (Lepidopsetta polyxystra) were examined to assess whether fish used tidal currents to aid horizontal migration.

Search and Passage Are Decoupled for Migrating Trout Kelts at Multi‐Exit Dam

open access: yesRiver Research and Applications, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Longitudinal and lateral river connectivity have been drastically reduced over time, with hydropower development as a major driver of fragmentation. While fishways are widely implemented to support upstream migration, downstream passage remains a major challenge.

Models on diel vertical migration

open access: yes, 1993
To clarify what can be expected from models the role of modelling in the scientific process in relation to experiments and field studies is addressed. Hypotheses to explain vertical migration are reviewed with respect to the selection mechanism assumed; it is asked whether group selection instead of individual selection arguments are used explicitly or

Reverse Diel Vertical Migration: An Escape from Invertebrate Predators [PDF]

open access: yesScience, 1983
The marine copepod Pseudocalanus sp. exhibits an unusual reverse diel vertical migration in Dabob Bay, Washington, concurrently with a normal vertical migration by nocturnal invertebrate predators. Reduced spatial overlap with predators appears to decrease mortality rate of adult female Pseudocalanus

Programmed unmanned aerial vehicles show great potential for monitoring marine megafauna in specific areas of interest

open access: yesRemote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.
Targeted conservation measures are contingent on robust knowledge of spatio‐temporal animal distribution in areas of interest. We explore unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) transect monitoring as a novel method for standardized digital aerial surveys of marine megafauna by investigating the fine‐resolution spatio‐temporal distribution of harbour porpoises ...

Diel Vertical Migrators Respond to Short‐Term Upwelling Events

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters
Pelagic organisms inhabiting coastal upwelling regions face a high risk of advection away from the nearshore productive habitat, potentially leading to mortality.

Migration of Net Phytoplankton and Zooplankton in Mendum’s Pond, New Hampshire [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
The study examines the vertical distribution and migratory behavior of net phytoplankton and zooplankton of Mendum’s Pond in Barrington, N.H. The cyanobacteria, Microcystis and Aphanocapsa were the dominant net phytoplankton in this lake.
