This review and data analysis outline how fish biologists should most reliably estimate the
minimal amount of oxygen needed by a fish to support its aerobic metabolic rate (termed …

Interest in the measurement of metabolic rates is growing rapidly, because of the importance
of metabolism in advancing our understanding of organismal physiology, behaviour …

A major challenge for fish biologists in the 21st century is to predict the biotic effects of global
climate change. With marked changes in biogeographic distribution already in evidence for …

Hypoxia is a common occurrence in aquatic habitats, and it is becoming an increasingly
frequent and widespread environmental perturbation, primarily as the result of …

Aerobic metabolism generates 15–20 times more energy (ATP) than anaerobic metabolism,
which is crucial in maintaining energy budgets in animals, fueling metabolism, activity …

Temperature-induced limitations on the capacity of the cardiorespiratory system to transport
oxygen from the environment to the tissues, manifested as a reduced aerobic scope …

ABSTRACT P crit–generally defined as the P O2 below which the animal can no longer
maintain a stable rate of O2 consumption (Ṁ O2), such that Ṁ O2 becomes dependent upon …

The capacity to extract oxygen from the environment and transport it to respiring tissues in
support of metabolic demand reportedly has implications for species' thermal tolerance …

The collective directional movement of animals occurs over both short distances and longer
migrations, and is a critical aspect of feeding, reproduction and the ecology of many species …

In an ocean that is rapidly warming and losing oxygen, accurate forecasting of species'
responses must consider how this environmental change affects fundamental aspects of …
