Afficher plus [+] Moins [-]The long-term goal of this research is to learn in what ways and to what extent the individual behavior of zooplankters can affect overall zooplankton population distributions. 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.
