PS: The image on the startpage of the ecoSCOPE server you can perceive in 3D even on your normal monitor: to get a STEREO impression squint your eyes to overlap the upper left two large krill, focusing on the black eyes. After a while the 3rd dimension develops in your brain, like on dot-stereograms. The position of the green fecal string below the large krill can then be identified in space. If you send us a description of the location of that fecal string in space we will send you a high resolution image of krill
