How the bending mechanics of setae modulate hydrodynamic sensing in copepods

Copepods sense the hydrodynamic disturbances induced by swimming planktonic prey, potential mates, and predators through the bending of setae on their first antennae and other appendages. While the flows induced by these sources have been studied and are crucial for the mechanoreception of copepods,...
