Check out our new article about magnetic compass orientation in juvenile herring and the potential involvement of cry4 as magnetoreceptor. @SFB_1372 , @GRK1885 , @UniOldenburg royalsocietypublishing.org/doi/10.1098/rs…

@WeissShahaf @BeetzJerome @GerlachG3 @iScience_CP @SFB_1372 Thanks for asking @WeissShahaf ! Nice to start a coversation. Yes, like @BeetzJerome already said, our project was performed to test if the fish can use the magnetic field to gain knowledge of their location (relative to a distant goal); This is generally independent of landmarks

@BeetzJerome @LisaSpiecker @GerlachG3 @iScience_CP @SFB_1372 Can we really exclude map based navigation? 180 km away, no landmark of the original map is available for use

Coral reef fish larvae show no map-based navigation. They rather orient based on an internal compass. @LisaSpiecker @GerlachG3 @iScience_CP @SFB_1372 sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

Juvenile coral reef fish (O. doederleini) rely on innate or learned compass orientation rather than map-based navigation. @LisaSpiecker , @GerlachG3 , @SFB_1372 , @UniOldenburg, @OneTreeIslandRS cell.com/iscience/fullt…

Cod larvae orient to the source of low-frequency underwater noise at the level generated in the proximity of an offshore wind turbine: doi.org/10.1038/s42003… @AlessandroCre90 @Havforskningen @ICES_ASC @EMarineBoard @HBrowman @durifcaroline

Without parents for guidance, juvenile Atlantic herring need something else for guidance and now @SFB_1372 @UniOldenburg @HIFMB_OL @GerlachG3 @LisaSpiecker @LetsBeFrank_e have discovered that the youngsters use the position of the sun to find their way journals.biologists.com/jeb/article/22…
