TLDR
Given oxygen uptake and cardiac output data, combined with blood flow distribution patterns during exercise, it is calculated that the working muscles can account for nearly all the measured increase in total oxygen uptake at this level of exercise.
Abstract
The effects of steady-state, aerobic swimming exercise upon the cardiovascular system of rainbow trout (Salmo gairdneri) are discussed. When these fish are forced to swim at 80% of their critical v...

Early life history and recruitment in fish populations

TL;DR: The early life history of fishes and its role in recruitment processes, as well as parent-progeny relationships and selective processes, are studied to help understand recruitment in fish populations.

The Control of Respiration and Circulation in Fish During Exercise and Hypoxia

TL;DR: Little is known of the control of breathing during exercise, the switch from rhythmic to ram ventilation at high water velocities may be initiated by mechanoreceptors on the gill surface.

Metabolic Scope in Fishes

TL;DR: It is now thought that much of animal foraging behaviour can be explained by so-called ‘optimal foraging theory’, whereby the animal behaves in such a manner as to maximize the ratio of energy income over energy expenditure.

Effect of temperature on maximum swimming speed and cost of transport in juvenile European sea bass (Dicentrarchus labrax).

TL;DR: The controlling effect of temperature on AMR is shown to be the key factor limiting maximal swimming speed of sea bass and a proposed model integrates the effects of water temperature on the interaction between metabolism and swimming performance.

The interactive effects of feeding and exercise on oxygen consumption, swimming performance and protein usage in juvenile rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss)

TL;DR: The results suggest that the irreducible SDA load reduces swimming performance and that O2max is limited by the capacity to take up O2 at the gills and/or to deliver O2 through the circulatory system rather than by thecapacity to consume O2at the tissues.
