The swimming capability of fish plays an important role in determining the selectivity and
efficiency of capture by mobile bottom-trawl fishing gears. The authors test the hypotheses …

In this paper, we describe a model that allows estimation of the energy expenditure of a
maneuvering fish from a knowledge of its changes in speed and direction. This model …

Swimming performance tests of fish have been integral to studies of muscle energetics,
swimming mechanics, gas exchange, cardiac physiology, disease, pollution, hypoxia and …

Unsteady aquatic locomotion is not an exception, but rather how animals often swim. It
includes fast-starts (C-start or S-start), escape maneuvers, turns, acceleration/deceleration …

Understanding swimming performance of native freshwater fishes has implications for
ecology, conservation, and management. In particular, this type of information has practical …

We used a swim chamber, flume, and large-scale fishway models to assess the swimming
performance, behavior, and passage success of endangered Rio Grande silvery minnow …

Fish speed and stamina, locomotion and the mechanics of fish swimming, are important to
the development and design of passage, exclusion, and guidance systems for fish. Such …

Transit costs associated with commuting between resting sites ashore and foraging areas at
sea constitute an appreciable portion of foraging expenditures in pinnipeds. We examined …

Fish swimming modes and the shape of both the fins and body are expected to affect their
swimming ability under different flow conditions. These swimming strategies and body …

This paper presents sprinting data from Iberian barbel (Luciobarbus bocagei) and northern
straight-mouth nase (Pseudochondrostoma duriense), volitionally swimming against high …
