摘要:

昼夜循环驱动着地球上最大规模的生物迁移:水生生物昼夜垂直迁移(DVM)。本文提出了一个三维基于个体的模型,该模型整合了光动力效应、趋重力性和随机重定向,以探究个体水平的游泳行为如何产生种群尺度的DVM模式。通过求解游泳者群体的朗之万方程,我们识别出四种不同的状态——表面聚集、浅层DVM、深层DVM和下沉——这些状态由两个关键的无量纲参数控制:佩克莱数(Pe),代表运动持续性;以及垂直游泳不对称比(W=w_down/w_up),编码光动力偏差。这些状态源于光驱动导航与主动噪声之间的非线性相互作用,并通过垂直分布的拓扑和统计特征进行诊断。我们揭示了一个关键反馈:向上偏置的游泳(W<1)促进表面聚集,而过度向下偏置(W>1)导致不可逆的下沉。解析估计将状态边界与趋重力性对齐和速度反转联系起来。总之,我们的结果提供了一个机制框架来解释DVM的多样性,并强调了光梯度(而非绝对强度)在塑造生态自组织中的核心作用。

英文摘要:

The day-night cycle drives the largest biomass migration on Earth: the diel vertical migration (DVM) of aquatic organisms. Here, we present a three-dimensional agent-based model that incorporates photokinesis, gyrotaxis, and stochastic reorientation to explore how individual-level swimming behaviors give rise to population-scale DVM patterns. By solving Langevin equations for swarms of swimmers, we identify four distinct regimes -- Surface Accumulation, Shallow DVM, Deep DVM, and Sinking -- governed by two key dimensionless parameters: the Peclet number (Pe), representing motility persistence, and the vertical swimming asymmetry ratio (W=wdown/wup), encoding photokinetic bias. These regimes emerge from nonlinear interactions between light-driven navigation and active noise, diagnosed through topological and statistical features of vertical distributions. A critical feedback is uncovered: upward-biased swimming (W<1) promotes surface aggregation, while excessive downward bias (W>1) leads to irreversible sinking. Analytical estimates link regime boundaries to gyrotactic alignment and velocity reversals. Together, our results provide a mechanistic framework to interpret DVM diversity and emphasize the central role of light gradients-beyond absolute intensity-in shaping ecological self-organization.
