Vertical migration patterns of krill exposed to LD and LD-DD. (A) Vertical migration patterns of krill exposed to LD for 48 h. X-axis indicate the Zeitgeber Time (ZT) given in hours from each event of lights-on (6:00), corresponding to ZT0. Y-axis indicate the mean krill depth in cm (n = 45). Error bars represent SEMs. White and grey rectangles represent alternation of light and dark phases. For each experimental day, results of the RAIN analysis test for the presence of rhythmic oscillations are reported (T = period of oscillation; p = p-value). (B) Vertical migration patterns of krill exposed to LD for 24 h followed by 48 h in DD. X-axis represent the time in hours from the beginning of the run. For the first 24 h, time is given in ZT, with ZT0 corresponding to lights-on (6:00). For the following 48 h, time is given in Circadian Time or CT, with CT0 corresponding to subjective lights-on in DD (6:00). Y-axis indicate the mean krill depth in cm (n = 41). Error bars represent SEMs. White, grey and light grey rectangles represent alternation of light, dark and subjective light phases respectively. For each experimental day, results of the RAIN analysis test for the presence of rhythmic oscillations are reported (T = period of oscillation; p = p-value). The figure was generated using the plot function in the “graphics” package (version 3.6.3, https://www.rdocumentation.org/packages/graphics) in R (RStudio version 1.0.136, RStudio Team 2016).
