Social aggregation in the pelagic zone with special reference to fish and invertebrates
DA Ritz, AJ Hobday, JC Montgomery… - Advances in marine …, 2011 - Elsevier
Aggregations of organisms, ranging from zooplankton to whales, are an extremely common

Mechanisms underlying shoal composition in the Trinidadian guppy, Poecilia reticulata
Free‐ranging groups are frequently assorted by phenotypic characters. However, very little
is known about the underlying processes that determine this structuring. In this study, we …

Variability and predictability of Antarctic krill swarm structure
Swarming is a fundamental part of the life of Euphausia superba, yet we still know very little
about what drives the considerable variability in swarm shape, size and biomass. We …

Swarming and behaviour in Antarctic krill
GA Tarling, S Fielding - Biology and ecology of Antarctic krill, 2016 - Springer
The behavioural ecology of Antarctic krill is dominated by their tendency to swarm. They
form amongst the largest monospecific aggregations of biomass in the animal kingdom, with …
