1985年，在对蒙特雷峡谷中层水环境进行研究期间，使用单人无系留潜水器在现场记录了生物发光的视频图像。胶质生物体负责最辉煌的生物发光显示器，往往表现出复杂的动力学响应机械刺激。生物发光显示记录从识别的生物体的图像显示和显示模式进行了描述。所有捕获的标本的生物发光发射光谱是蓝色的，峰值发射在460和494 nm之间。对机械刺激生物发光记录的图像分析显示，源密度在43和175 m-3之间，强度在2.5和37.3 μW sr-1 m-3之间。在研究的所有深度（100和560米之间）的主要显示类型是发光分泌物。尽管高强度的机械刺激的生物发光，没有自发的光产生记录在没有机械刺激。
Video images of bioluminescence were recorded in situ during a 1985 study of the midwater environment of the Monterey Canyon, using a single-person, untethered submersible. Gelatinous organisms were responsible for the most brilliant bioluminescent displays, often exhibiting elaborate kinetics in response to mechanical stimulation. Images of bioluminescent displays recorded from identified organisms are shown and display patterns are described. All bioluminescence emission spectra from captured specimens were blue, with peak emissions between 460 and 494 nm. Image-analysis of recordings of mechanically stimulated bioluminescence revealed source densities between 43 and 175 m-3 and intensities between 2.5 and 37.3 μW sr-1 m-3. The predominant display type at all depths studied (between 100 and 560 m) was luminous secretions. Despite high intensities of mechanically stimulated bioluminescence, no spontaneous light production was recorded in the absence of mechanical stimulation.
