Gyrotactic phytoplankton in laminar and turbulent flows: a dynamical systems approach
Massimo Cencini, Guido Boffetta, Matteo Borgnino +1
Gyrotactic algae are bottom heavy, motile cells whose swimming direction is determined by a balance between a buoyancy torque directing them upwards and fluid velocity gradients. G…
