Phase transitions of wax esters adjust buoyancy in diapausing Calanoides acutus (2011, background): “These findings have subsequently been used to study buoyancy regulation in another species, C. finmarchicus (Visser and Jonasdottir 1999; Campbell and Dower 2003).”
Positive buoyancy in eel leptocephali: an adaptation for life in the ocean surface layer (2009, background): “Planktonic life is a common strategy widely adopted by various marine organisms, and in order to obtain buoyancy, some have a Xoat, high lipid or ammonia content, and others obtain lift by locomotion (Richmond 1987; Alexander 1990; Voight et al. 1994; Phleger 1998; Molloy and Cowling 1999; Campbell”
