... the barrier and experienced an abrupt increase in hydrodynamic drag, and was imaged using high numerical aperture optics and a high-speed low-light video system. The average response latency for Lingulodinium polyedrum strain HJ was 15 ms (N >300 cells) at the three highest flow rates tested...

... acceleration away from the walls, and shear along the wall. Bioluminescence of the dinoflagellates Lingulodinium polyedrum and Ceratocorys horrida , chosen because of their previously characterized different flow sensitivities, was imaged with a low-light video system. Numerical simulations were used...
