Exercise and aerobic scope in fishes have attracted scientists' attention for several decades.
While it has been suggested that aerobic scope may limit behavioral expression and …

Herein, we consider the heart as an organ whose task is to supply blood flow to the tissues.
A brief section on the form and function of the heart sets the stage for more detailed sections …

Global climate changes have led to a depletion in omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (n-3
PUFA) in marine phytoplankton that—with food web transfers—could negatively impact fish …

August Krogh pioneered a view of cardiac output that emphasised the rate of venous return,
and stressed the importance of changing the filling of the 'inadequately'supplied heart …

Here we review how hypoxia affects growth and digestion in fish. Thus, the growth effects of
hypoxia are explained in terms of reductions of energy intake (appetite) and assimilation …

The specific growth rate (SGR) of a cohort of 2000 tagged juvenile European sea bass was
measured in a common tank, during two sequential cycles comprising three-weeks feed …

We investigated the ability of European sea bass (Dicentrarchus labrax) to respond
simultaneously to the metabolic demands of specific dynamic action (SDA) and aerobic …

Fish routinely encounter hypoxic environments, which may have detrimental effects on
digestion and performance. The present study measured oxygen consumption (MO 2) …

Limited aerobic scope (AS) during digestion might be the main constraint on the
performance of bodily functions in water‐breathing animals. Thus, investigating the …

Previous studies have shown that if European sea bass are exercised after feeding, they can
achieve a significantly higher maximum metabolic rate (MMR) than when fasted. They can …
