BICLOPS explores how internal biological clocks and environmental factors influence the vertical migrations of copepods in the ocean. By studying the species Calanus finmarchicus, the project aims to uncover the mechanisms behind these migrations and their ecological significance.
Coordinated vertical migrations of animals in open waters (pelagic zone) are among the largest biomass movements on Earth.
They structure marine ecosystem and are thereby essential to humans (e.g. fisheries, carbon-cycle).
Yet, the mechanisms of these migrations are hardly understood, especially the impact of endogenous clocks vs. direct responses to environmental cycles.
Endogenous clocks are central to various organismal rhythms.
Importantly, they maintain organismal rhythmicity even under con…
