Aquatic organisms may use different mechanisms to locate an odour source, including odour-gated rheotaxis and chemotaxis. However, the effects of spatial and temporal information contained within odour signals in guiding orientation are under debate. In nature, turbulence and plume meandering give rise to signal intermittency, which organisms must overcome to locate an odour source successfully. In this study, crayfish were presented with odour plumes formed by a continuously released jet or a pulsed jet ranging from 0.5 to 3 Hz. Crayfish oriented significantly differently in pulsed odour plumes differed significantly from than in a continuously released jet plume. In a continuous odour plumes, crayfish walked faster, had more accurate heading and turning angles, and stopped less often. The results suggest that crayfish are able to orient in a pulsed odour plumes, but that the spatial and temporal complexity of a continuous released odour plume allowed them to be more successful to find the odour source.
