This 1978 volume contains papers from contributors to the Third
International Conference on Comparative physiology. The Conference
selected particular areas for examination. In the first section of
this volume the problems of how animals can take up water vapour
from the atmosphere are considered as well as advances in studies
of how water movements across epithelia are generated by solute
movements. The second section deals with how a wide variety of
animals, both invertebrate and vertebrate, living under stress in
ionically unbalanced environments cope with the unusual
difficulties of ionic regulation. In the final section biologists
and physicists examine the role of fluid mechanics in biology. Both
the theoretical basis of the hydrodynamics and aerodynamics and the
biological investigations on the variety of fluid flows encountered
inside and around organisms are presented.
