  • Fish Physiology: Homeostasis and Toxicology of Essential Metals

    by Chris M. Wood, Colin Brauner, Anthony P. Farrell ...
    Series Book 31 - Fish Physiology
    Homeostasis and Toxicology of Essential Metals synthesizes the explosion of new information on the molecular, cellular, and organismal handling of metals in fish in the past 15 years. These elements are no longer viewed by fish physiologists as "heavy metals" that kill fish by suffocation, but rather as interesting moieties that enter and leave fish by specific pathways, which are subject to ...

  • Fish Physiology: Hypoxia

    Edited by Jeffrey G. Richards, Colin Brauner, Anthony P. Farrell ...
    Series Book 27 - Fish Physiology
    Periods of environmental hypoxia (Low Oxygen Availability) are extremely common in aquatic systems due to both natural causes such as diurnal oscillations in algal respiration, seasonal flooding, stratification, under ice cover in lakes, and isolation of densely vegetated water bodies, as well as more recent anthropogenic causes (e.g. eutrophication). In view of this, it is perhaps not surprising ... Read more

  • Mismanagement of Marine Fisheries

    by Alan Longhurst ...
    Longhurst examines the proposition, central to fisheries science, that a fishery creates its own natural resource by the compensatory growth it induces in the fish, and that this is sustainable. His novel analysis of the reproductive ecology of bony fish of cooler seas offers some support for this, but a review of fisheries past and present confirms that sustainability is rarely achieved. The ... Read more
