this is all exactly right- plus the bonus of using polarized light under these conditions. Already papers has shown that using this concept could be used to find missing divers. i encourage you to read work from our lab (Speiser Lab) on distributed visual systems in chitons and scallops

yes, sorry i didn't fully answer you. increased eutrophication leads to more turbid or specially narrow (colored) water so in these environments we're making vision a more difficult endeavor. animals that use different or multiple types of light cues may be better off in the anthropocene

Also stay tuned for a paper that looks at how turbidity may affect mate signaling in blue crabs of the Chesapeake Bay!?

this is something i'd love to look into more! porcelain crabs are invasive to the area too! how may they be using vision! stay tuned for my other manuscripts (in the works!)
