The physiology of polar fishes / Anthony P. Farrell, John F. Steffensen, eds.
Title: | The physiology of polar fishes / Anthony P. Farrell, John F. Steffensen, eds. |
Author(s): | Farrell, Anthony P., Steffensen, John F., DeVries, Arthus L. Møller, Peter Rask. Pörner, H. O. DeVries, Arthus L. Steffensen, John F. Axelsson, Michael. Wells, R. M. G. Davison, William. MacDonald, John. |
Date: | 2005. |
Publisher: | Amsterdam: Elsevier |
Abstract: | Nine individually authored chapters describe physiological adaptations of fishes of Arctic and Southern Oceans. Includes polar marine environments; cellular and biomechanical adaptations; phylogenetic relationships; antifreeze proteins; metabolic rates and thermal tolerance; and muscular physiology and nervous system. |
