Dissolved oxygen (DO) in water bodies is a prerequisite for fish survival and plays a crucial
role in fish growth, development, and physiological processes. However, with increasing …

This chapter reviews the influence of environmental temperature on the cardiovascular
system. Specifically, we examine how the cardiovascular system responds to both acute and …

Understanding the resilience of aquatic ectothermic animals to climate warming has been
hindered by the absence of experimental systems experiencing warming across relevant …

Post‐exercise mortality (PEM) may occur when fish exercise to exhaustion and are pushed
so far beyond their physiological limits that they can no longer sustain life. Although fish …

Welfare of farmed fish has become of increasing concern for consumers, producers, interest
groups and authorities. To improve fish welfare, it is necessary to find indicators that can …

In this study, Atlantic salmon were:(i) implanted with heart rate (f H) data storage tags
(DSTs), pharmacologically stimulated to maximum f H, and warmed at 10° C h− 1 (ie tested …

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 …

The use of unconventional model organisms is significantly increasing in different fields of
research, widely contributing to advance life sciences understanding. Among fishes, the …

Parental influences are a potentially important component of transgenerational transfer of
phenotype in vertebrates. This study examined how chronic hypoxic exposure on adult …

Increasing heart rate (ƒ H) is a central, if not primary mechanism used by fishes to support
their elevated tissue oxygen consumption during acute warming. Thermal acclimation can …
