SUMMARY. Diel vertical migrations of a dinoflagellate, Ceratium hirundinella, were induced in a laboratory tube (1.63 × 0.15 m) under a light-dark cycle. The timing of vertical migrations differed between cultures in the exponential and stationary phases of growth; the latter showed a greater coincidence with the light regime.
Migration of cells into the surface layers occurred at low values of surface irradiance ( 1300 μE m−2 s−1) there was a marked avoidance of surface waters, and population maxima were found at depths associated with a relative irradiance level of 10% or c. 150 μE m−2 s−1). Thermal stratification restricted downward movement of cells into the cooler layers. The combination of high surface irradiance and thermal stratification resulted in large, stable, sub-surface maxima of Ceratium, similar to those observed in natural waters under comparable environmental conditions.
