On the Cover: Onshore-moving nonlinear internal waves in the waters off La Jolla, California, concentrate bands of the motile, bioluminescent dinoflagellate Lingulodinium polyedra. For more on how horizontal drift and vertical swimming in internal waves modulate plankton's immediate environment, see Garwood et al., in this issue. Photo credit: Eddie Kisfaludy/SciFly
