Every night in the open ocean zooplankton migrate toward the surface, away from their deepwater daytime habitat. They are followed by a large and diverse community of fish and invertebrates in what is called "diel vertical migration." By scuba diving in the open ocean at night, so-called "blackwater divers" are some of the few people on Earth who get to see these weird and wonderful animals up close. [Source: Scientific American]
