Midwater Bioluminescence Assessment in the West Alboran Gyre (Mediterranean Sea)
2007
Widder, E.A.
The primary research objective was a detailed analysis of bioluminescent phytoplankton and zooplankton distributional patterns in the Western Alboran Sea. Bioluminescence potential of the water column was assessed at 17 different stations using a vertical profiling bathyphotometer (HIDEX-BP). Organism collections, for purposes of taxonimic identification and physiological experiments were made by meter net tows, SCUBA and using the Johnson-Sea-Link submersible. Emphasis was on the identification of gelatinous zooplankton as potential sources of bioluminescence....
