New camouflage mechanism fish use in the open ocean Posted: 19 Nov 2015 01:05 PM PST Fish have a remarkable way to hide from their predators using camouflage techniques. A new study shows that fish scales have evolved to not only reflect light, but to also scramble polarization. Researchers identified the tissue structure that fish evolved to do this, which could be an analog to develop new materials to help hide objects in the water. |
