Abstract
Description
technical field
[0001] The present application relates to the field of experimental research on the behavior of plankton, and more specifically, relates to an experimental system and an experimental method for testing the influence of the chemical environment of the water body on the behavior of plankton. Background technique
[0002] Avoidance behavior is very common in nature, and it is a more effective way for organisms to escape potential threats (Loose & Dawidowicz 1994). Avoiding potential risks through avoidance behavior has been found in most organisms in response to external environmental stress. For example, Das&Stickle (1994) found that larval blue crabs (Callinectes sapidus) and small blue crabs (Callinectes similis) showed obvious avoidance behavior when they sensed hypoxic water, and this avoidance behavior was similar in other crustaceans ( Shrimp) are also found (Cook & Boyd 1965, Haefner 1971). In the context of global change, the physical and chemical env...
