DOI: 10.1016/j.ecoenv.2021.112052
Abstract: The hatchability, mortality rate, lipid peroxide levels, and swimming speed of Artemia salina have been compared based on short exposures of ZnCl2, CdCl2, and HgCl2 in artificial seawater. The hatching tests were carried out for… read more here.

DOI: 10.1017/jfm.2019.612
Abstract: Multi-fin systems, like fish or fish-inspired vehicles, are governed by unsteady three-dimensional interactions between their multiple fins. In particular, dorsal/anal fins have received much attention because they are just upstream of the main thrust-producing fin:… read more here.

DOI: 10.1093/icb/icab141
Abstract: Numerous aquatic invertebrates use drag-based metachronal rowing for swimming, in which closely spaced appendages are oscillated starting from the posterior, with each appendage phase-shifted in time relative to its neighbor. Continuously swimming species such as… read more here.

DOI: 10.1103/physrevlett.121.178002
Abstract: We study a swimming undulating sheet in the isotropic phase of an active nematic liquid crystal. Activity changes the effective shear viscosity, reducing it to zero at a critical value of activity. Expanding in the… read more here.

High-Throughput Screening of Psychotropic Compounds: Impacts on Swimming Behaviours in Artemia franciscana
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2021 at "Toxics"
DOI: 10.3390/toxics9030064
Abstract: Animal behaviour is becoming increasingly popular as an endpoint in ecotoxicology due to its increased sensitivity and speed compared to traditional endpoints. However, the widespread use of animal behaviours in environmental risk assessment is currently… read more here.

Ontogenetic changes in swimming speed of silver carp, bighead carp, and grass carp larvae: implications for larval dispersal
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2018 at "PeerJ"
DOI: 10.7717/peerj.5869
Abstract: Bighead, silver, and grass carps are invasive in the waterways of central North America, and grass carp reproduction in tributaries of the Great Lakes has now been documented. Questions about recruitment potential motivate a need… read more here.
