Developing an acoustic survey of euphausiids to understand trophic interactions in the Bering Sea ecosystem (2012, background): “…this effect is difficult to measure directly (Clutter and Anraku, 1968); however, artificial lights have been shown to increase net estimates of euphausiid density by a factor of 2–20 fold, implying that the effect of avoidance could be of that magnitude (Sameoto et al., 1993; Wiebe et al., 2004).”
Modeling What We Sample and Sampling What We Model: Challenges for Zooplankton Model Assessment (2017, background): “Net avoidance of macrozooplankton such as Antarctic Krill can be minimized with the use of strobelights (Wiebe et al., 2004) which are thought to either “dazzle” the plankton, or attract them.”
