摘要: Time-lapse digital images can be acquired and archived using web-cameras, allowing non-invasive analysis of behavior patterns bivalve molluscs at ultradian (sub-daily) time-scales over long intervals. These records analyzed directly by a human operator or through properly calibrated image software. Preliminary results species marine freshwater bivalves identify several biological rhythms similar duration. Wavelet indicates strong periodicity in mantle siphon activity the 3 to 7 min range, with longer duration shell contraction periods 60–90 min. The recurrence these among maintained under constant (but differing) conditions suggests influence common intrinsic drivers (chemico-physical mechanisms clocks). Sub-daily growth increments preserved shells rapidly growing are potentially related rhythms, implications for growth, biomineralization, temporal resolution paleoclimate proxy data.
