Popis: | The change in bioluminescence field intensity at night in the western part of the Black Sea has been investigated. A difference in the dynamics of the bioluminescence field intensity in the upper (0–35 m) and deep (>35 m) layers has been shown. It is elucidated with multivariate statistical analysis that the bioluminescent species are in the space of influence of several factors, including both biotic and abiotic. Biotic factors are shown to exhibit the greatest effect on the periodicity of the bioluminescence field intensity increase and decrease at night. Abiotic factors are less significant in the bioluminescence circadian rhythms. |
