Wow! Cool Any one of these may well be the response when children see the lenticular cover and glow-in-the-dark illustrations in \u003ci\u003eGlow Down Deep\u003c\/i\u003e. The book takes readers into the lives of amazing glowing organisms -- animal and otherwise -- and shines a new light on the spectacular natural phenomena of bioluminescence, biofluorescence and ultraviolet light. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003ci\u003eGlow Down Deep\u003c\/i\u003e goes into the depths of the ocean to find sea dwellers that use the power of light--or the semblance of light--to survive. It could be for camouflage, mating, warding off predators or attracting prey. The Glowing Ocean, for example, is a type of bioluminescence that many humans can see. It occurs on the water surface when small planktonic surface dwellers--such as single-celled Dinoflagellates--are bioluminescent. Under the right conditions, they bloom in dense layers, giving the ocean surface a reddish-brown color in daylight and a sparkly sheen at night. Some of the Dinoflagellates in these algal blooms are poisonous to animals and can cause sickness or even death in humans. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e Readers will learn about 23 organisms, their biology, what type of luminescence they use, where and how they survive: \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003e Bigfin Reef Squid\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e Dragonfish\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e Siphonophore\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e Glowing Coral\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e Cock-Eyed Squid\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e Crystal Jellyfish\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e Sea Pen\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e Chain Catshark\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e Comb Jelly\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e Hatchet Fish\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e Krill\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e Plankton\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e Glowing Oceans\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e Bobtail Squid\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e Helmet Jellyfish\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e Tube Anemone\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e False Stonefish\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e Viper Fish\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e Sea Cucumber \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e White Spotted Jellyfish\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e Pipefish\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e Angler Fish\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e Seahorse.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e \u003cp\u003e Did You Know? insets focus on unusual facts, like the sailors who followed the lights of Flashlight Fish to guide their boats through dangerous coral reefs at night; or the glowing Siphonophore Fish, one of the longest animals in the world, even longer than a blue whale! \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e Like its companion title, \u003ci\u003eNature at Night\u003c\/i\u003e (9780228102540), \u003ci\u003eGlow Down Deep\u003c\/i\u003e takes a new look at how nature magically lights up the dark.
