The first in two decades to exclusively integrate physiological and
biomechanical studies of fish locomotion, feeding and breathing,
making this book both comprehensive and unique. This book reviews
and integrates recent developments in research on fish
biomechanics, with particular emphasis on experimental results
derived from the application of innovative new technologies to this
area of research, such as high-speed video, sonomicrometry and
digital imaging of flow fields. The collective chapters, written by
leaders in the field, provide a multidisciplinary view and
synthesis of the latest information on feeding mechanics, breathing
mechanics, sensory systems, stability and maueverability, skeletal
systems, muscle structure and performance, and hydrodynamics of
steady and burst swimming, including riverine passage of migratory
species.
Fish Physiology: Physiology of Elasmobranch Fishes, Volume 34B is a useful reference for fish physiologists, biologists, ecologists, and conservation biologists. Following an increase in research on elasmobranchs due to the plight of sharks in today's oceans, this volume compares elasmobranchs to other groups of fish, highlights areas of interest for future research, and offers perspective on future problems. Covering measurements and lab-and-field based studies of large pelagic sharks, this volume is a natural addition to the renowned Fish Physiology series.
