Exposure to a variety of environmental factors such as temperature, pH, oxygen and salinity
may influence the oxidative status in aquatic organisms. The present review article focuses …

Shallow or near-shore environments, such as ponds, estuaries and intertidal zones, are
among the most physiologically challenging of all aquatic settings. Animals inhabiting these …

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

Some recent modelling papers projecting smaller fish sizes and catches in a warmer future
are based on erroneous assumptions regarding (i) the scaling of gills with body mass and …

Tropical ectotherms are hypothesized to be vulnerable to environmental changes, but
cascading effects of organismal tolerances on the assembly and functioning of reef fish …

Fish aquaculture facilities strive to maintain abiotic conditions that optimise somatic growth.
Two physiological systems that are critically linked to environmental abiotic factors are ion …

Oxygen bioavailability is declining in aquatic systems worldwide as a result of climate
change and other anthropogenic stressors. For aquatic organisms, the consequences are …

The structural features of the fish gill necessary for oxygen uptake also favor undesirable,
passive movements of ions and water. Reversible gill remodeling is one solution to this …

Atlantic salmon farming operates with high production intensities where skin integrity is
recognized as a central factor and indicator for animal health and welfare. In the described …

The changes in ocean chemistry stemming from anthropogenic CO 2 release—termed
ocean acidification (OA)—are predicted to have wide-ranging effects on fish and ultimately …
