  2. Snell's window - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Snell's_window

    Snell's window (also called Snell's circle [1] or optical man-hole [2]) is a phenomenon by which an underwater viewer sees everything above the surface through a cone of light of width of about 96 degrees. [3] This phenomenon is caused by refraction of light entering water, and is governed by Snell's Law. [4]

  3. Telescopefish - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Telescopefish

    Telescopefish participate in the diel vertical migration in which mesopelagic fish migrate to the surface at night to feed before returning to the depths to shelter during the day. [3] Much less is known of their reproductive habits. They are presumed to be nonguarding pelagic spawners, releasing eggs and sperm indiscriminately into the water.

  4. Underwater vision - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Underwater_vision

    Views through a flat mask, above and below water. By wearing a flat diving mask, humans can see clearly underwater. [2] [7] [8] The mask's flat window separates the eyes from the surrounding water by a layer of air. Light rays entering from water into the flat parallel window change their direction minimally within the window material itself. [2]

  5. Vision in fish - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vision_in_fish

    Comparison of the depths which different colours of light penetrate clear open ocean waters and the murkier coastal waters. Water absorbs the warmer long wavelengths colours, like reds and oranges, and scatters the cooler short wavelength colours. [4] Fish and other aquatic animals live in a different light environment than terrestrial species do.

  6. Aquascope - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aquascope

    Bathyscope of c.a. 1850. The instrument which has been popularly named the Water, or Marine Telescope, from the power given by its use to see into the water, consists of a tube of metal or wood, of a convenient length, to enable a person looking over the gunnel of a boat to rest the head on the one end, while the other is below the surface of the water; the upper end is so formed, that the ...

  7. Four-eyed fish - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Four-eyed_fish

    In early development, the four-eyed fish’s frontal bone expands dorsally allowing the eyes to be positioned on top of their head and appear bulging. [5] This allows the fish to simultaneously see above and below the water as it floats at the surface. The eyes are divided into dorsal and ventral halves, separated by a pigmented strip of tissue.

  8. Archerfish - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Archerfish

    Archerfish are remarkably accurate in their shooting; an adult fish almost always hits the target on the first shot. Although it is presumed that all archerfish species do this, it has only been confirmed from T. blythii, T. chatareus and T. jaculatrix. [1] They can bring down insects and other prey [6] up to 3 m (10 ft) above the water's ...

  9. Sensory systems in fish - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sensory_systems_in_fish

    Fish vision shows adaptation to their visual environment, for example deep sea fishes have eyes suited to the dark environment. Fish and other aquatic animals live in a different light environment than terrestrial species. Water absorbs light so that with increasing depth the
