Active amplification in tree cricket hearing
Meeting Abstract 113-5 Tuesday, Jan. 7 09:00 – 09:15 Active amplification in tree cricket hearing MHATRE, N; Western University natasha.mhatre@gmail.com https://www.natashamhatre.net/ Model system choice can be arbitrary and yet has a profound effect on what is considered ‘textbook behavior’. Traditionally, field crickets have been the textbook model system in insect acoustic-communication research; in behavior, neurobiology, or indeed, […]
A Natural Occurring Shark Repellent Ink has a Negative Effect on Shark Swimming Behavior
Meeting Abstract 113-6 Tuesday, Jan. 7 09:15 – 09:30 A Natural Occurring Shark Repellent: Ink has a Negative Effect on Shark Swimming Behavior SIMONITIS, LE*; MARSHALL, CD; Texas A&M University at Galveston; Texas A&M University at Galveston, Texas A&M University laureneve@tamu.edu Inking is an antipredator defense system which affects predators visually (as a smoke screen) and chemically […]
Swimming at intermediate Reynolds numbers in water boatmen
Meeting Abstract 113.2 Saturday, Jan. 7 Swimming at intermediate Reynolds numbers in water boatmen NGO, V.*; MCHENRY, M.J.; Univ. of California, Irvine; Univ. of California, Irvine vngo3@uci.edu A wide diversity of aquatic animals swim at intermediate Reynolds numbers, where both inertial or viscous forces may contribute to propulsion. Here we studied the relative importance of these forces […]
Swimming and Feeding by Unicellular vs Colonial Choanoflagellates
Meeting Abstract 113.6 Saturday, Jan. 7 Swimming and Feeding by Unicellular vs. Colonial Choanoflagellates KOEHL, M. *; STOCKER, R.; NICOLAU, D.; KING, N.; Univ. of California, Berkeley; MIT; Univ. of California, Berkeley; Univ. of California, Berkeley cnidaria@berkeley.edu Many aquatic protozoans are unicellular, while others form multicellular colonies. We used Salpingoeca rosetta, a unicellular choanoflagellate that can be […]
