There is an urgent need to determine the impacts of artificial light at night (ALAN) on invertebrate animals in aquatic environments. This project addresses this knowledge gap by investigating the effects of ALAN on the behaviour, and differential expression of clock-controlled genes in key ecological invertebrates representing marine and freshwater environments. In doing so, we aim to address the following question:Does 'ALAN' impact circadian clock function and associated rhythms in behaviour and gene expression in marine and freshwater crustaceans?

迫切需要确定夜间人造光（Alan）对水生环境中无脊椎动物的影响。该项目通过研究艾伦对行为的影响以及在代表海洋和淡水环境的关键生态无脊椎动物中的差异表达来解决这一知识差距。在此过程中，我们旨在解决以下问题：“艾伦”是否影响了昼夜节律的时钟功能以及在海洋和淡水甲壳类动物中行为和基因表达的相关节奏？
