The Rhythm of Many: Biological Rhythms in the Marine Environment, From Macro-Scale Planktonic Ecosystems to Micro-Scale Holobionts

Daily environmental oscillations that follow Earth’s rotation around the Sun set a metronome for life, under which all organisms have evolved. Entrainment to these cues allow organisms to rhythmically set the pace of their own endogenous biological clocks with which the timings of diverse cellular a...
