Bioluminescence Maintenance in Juvenile Porichthys notatus

Bioluminescence in the midshipman fish, Porichthys notatus from the Santa Barbara coastal region, was quantified from onset through the first two years of life. Maximum light emission was 2.5 × 109 photons s-1 upon leaving the nest and reached 2.0 × 1010 photons s-1 within the first year. These inte...
