Small pelagic fish (SPF) play extremely important ecological roles in marine ecosystems,
form some of the most economically valuable fisheries resources, and play a vital role in …

Climate change can have a pronounced impact on the physiology and behaviour of fishes.
Notably, many climate change stressors, such as global warming, hypoxia and ocean …

An increased energetic cost of acid-base regulation in a high-CO 2 environment has been
predicted to affect key metabolic traits and performance in fish. This chapter examines the …

Predator-prey interactions and, especially, the success of anti-predator responses are
modulated by the sensory channels of vision, olfaction, audition and mechanosensation. If …

Marine top predators are expected to adjust their foraging behaviour at multiple time scales
concomitantly with changes in forage fish availability. Rhinoceros auklets Cerorhinca …

abstract Recent literature suggests that anthropogenic stressors can disrupt ecologically
relevant behaviours in fish, such as the ability to escape from predators. Disruption of these …

This study examined how contraction force and protein profiles of the tube feet of the sea
urchin (Pseudocentrotus depressus) were affected when acclimated to 400 (control), 2000 …

Fast escape responses to a predator threat are fundamental to the survival of mobile marine
organisms. However, elasmobranchs are often underrepresented in such studies. Here, we …

The end of the pelagic larval stage is a critical period in the life of fish, subject to high
mortality rates, mostly due to predation. Success at this stage is then modulated by the ability …

The evolution of early land vertebrates from aquatic forms of life was a biological milestone.
The transition to land was accompanied with expectedly challenging physiological and …
