Many aquatic invertebrates are known to form swarms and schools. Thus, zooplankton are usually distributed unevenly both in vertical and in horizontal directions. There are a great number of studies on zooplankton swarms ranging from simple records or observations to more extensive functional and behavioral investigations. Yet, no attempt has been made on mathematically modeling these phenomena, chiefly because of the lack of detailed data on individual movements in swarms.
