An apparent monthly fluctuation in response of Ditgesia to all four strengths of gamma sources (from X to 9 X background) presented on the right over the period from September 27 to November 5, 1962. B. A suggested semi-monthly fluctuation in response during three semi-monthly periods (October 20-December 4) with left-turning during four days before new and full moons, right-turning for two days afterwards, and high dispersion of responses for the remainder of the cycles. C. Confirmation for such a semi-monthly pattern derived from the study of an additional 8 consecutive semi-monthly Please note that these images are extracted from scanned page images that may have been digitally enhanced for readability - coloration and appearance of these illustrations may not perfectly resemble the original Marine Biological Laboratory (Woods Hole, Mass. ); Marine Biological Laboratory (Woods Hole, Mass. ).
