Marine crustaceans with hairy appendages: Role of hydrodynamic boundary layers in sensing and feeding
Decapod crustaceans have appendages with an array of rigid hairs covered in chemoreceptors, used to sense and track food. Crustaceans directly influence the flow behavior by changing the speed of flow past the hairy surface, thereby manipulating the Reynolds number (Re). Hairs act either as a rake,...
