Diel vertical migration (DVM) of zooplankton,normal migration (ascent at dusk and descent at dawn) in a common sense,is an adaptive behavior against the variations of environment.This behavior not only determines the vertical habitats of zooplankton,but also indirectly affects their horizontal distributions and life history traits,and thereby plays a key role in the survivorship and recruitment of zooplankton population.Main hypotheses for DVM mechanism include: the light-driving hypothesis;the predator-avoidance hypothesis and the energy and resource utilization hypothesis.The predator-avoidance hypothesis has been demonstrated by a large number of experiments.Two temporal scales underlie the theoretical models on DVM: one is for the researches on the short-term behavioral mechanism and the other for the long-term life history strategies.With the advances in the experimental technology and the development of theory and modeling tools,these researches on the two temporal scales are getting integrated in a unified framework.
