Beschreibung

Examining the ecological implications of the wide variety of swimming patterns and behaviors of fish, this volume looks at the method and use of swimming by a range of fish species to avoid predation, feed, find food, mate, and find and migrate to optimal physical environments. Aimed at students and researchers in biomechanics, ecomorphology, ph

Über den Autor

Paolo Domenici has a PhD in Zoology from the University of British Columbia, Canada. He is currently senior researcher at the Institute for Coastal Marine Environment (IAMC) of the Italian National Research Council (CNR) in Oristano, Italy. His research interests focus on the locomotion of aquatic animals, particularly fish. Most of his previous research was on the kinematics of locomotion within the context of predator -prey encounters and their ecological relevance.
