The objectives of this research are two-fold: 1) to learn about euphausiid foraging strategies by observing the swimming behavior of large numbers of undisturbed individuals in the photic zone at different times of night, and 2) to learn how euphausiids partition energy between the vertical and horizontal components of motion at different times of night, particularly during vertical migration.
