Abstract
Fish rely on both chemical and visual cues to evaluate predation risk. Decisions with respect to activity partitioning in time (i.e., night vs. day) rely on accurate assessment of predation risk relative to energy intake; predation risk is generally thought to be lower at night at the expense of feeding opportunities. At night, the sensory complement model predicts greater reliance on chemical perception of risk. Under this condition, a lower ability to use vision should result in a more conservative response to chemical cues than during the day. We tested this hypothesis under natural conditions by comparing the alarm response of young-of-the-year Atlantic salmon (
