Diel vertical migration, the biggest active movement of biomass occuring around the globe everyday as mesopelagic critters and fish rise towards the ocean surface as night falls to feed on the phytoploankton in the photic zone. #sciart #scicomm #dielverticslmigration #mesopelagic

Have you ever wondered what a spring phytoplankton bloom and the seasonal feeding frenzy in the ocean may sound like? Listen to our piece “Match-Mismatch” and other awesome compositions at the Earth Tones concert this Wednesday. 🌊🎵
