Physiological Changes Associated with the Diadromous Migration of Salmonids

Description

The book reviews and discusses present knowledge concerning the diadromous migration of salmonids. It groups elements ranging from ecology to cell biology, to give the reader a background knowledge for critical understanding of published literature and for proper design of experiments. In the first chapter, elements related to the river migration are discussed. These include abiotic and biological factors involved in onset of migration, swimming activity during migration, metabolic aspects, and possible mechanisms for orientation. In the second chapter, structural and physiological changes associated with the transfer between different salinities are described. These include adjustments in water and ion balance, as well as cardiovascular, respiratory, and metabolic changes. In the third chapter, elements of preadaptation to these transfers are reviewed.
