Marine Bioluminescence: Mechanisms and Evaluation

Abstract

Our long-term goals are centered on helping to increase understanding of the mechanisms and adaptive significance of all forms of bioluminescence (BL). Within that broad scope, we are now focused on coastal BL. Recognizing the need for appropriate BL detectors for coastal investigations from the multiplicity of platforms likely to be utilized by various investigative groups, we have developed reliable, versatile and convenient instrumentation for study of bioluminescence in the coastal realm.
