“…A considerable amount of both field and experimental evidences have accumulated to support this phenomenon as described by the generally accepted predator-evasion hypothesis (Stich and Lampert, 1981;Gliwicz, 1986;Hays et al, 1994). It is also argued that there are other cues that trigger the same behavior in zooplankton such as ultraviolet radiation (UVR) (Alonso et al, 2004), temperature (Ramos-Jiliberto and Zun˜iga, 2001), oxygen limitation (Besiktepe, 2001;De Robertis, 2002), availability and competition for food (Pearre, 2000), wind action (Lemma, 2004), prey size (Hays et al, 1994;Cuker and Watson, 2002), conductivity (Roman et al, 2001) and others. Further readings dealing with different aspects of the causes of dial vertical migration (DVM) can be made in such publications as Perticarrari et al (2004); Shimode and Shirayama (2004); Aguilera et al (2006); Nomura (2006); Tsui (2006); Blachowiak-Samolyk et al (2006).…”
