During the past decade, a variety of new techniques and approaches have contributed to a deeper understanding of the myriad influences ions have on the function and structure of organisms. From respiration and excretion to neurological control and metabolic processing, ions and their regulation occupy a central role in physiology of fish as well as other organisms.
- Comprehensive update of ionic regulation in fish
- Focuses on wide variety of organ systems and the influence of ions on organ system function
- Contributions from an international group
AUDIENCE: Graduate students, faculty and researchers interested in comparative physiology, ichthyologists interested in physiology, cell biologists interested in how ions are regulated, as well as other physiologists. Schools with strong programs in physiology and ichthyology as well as marine sciences and cell biology. Fishery scientists interested in physiology, especially metabolism, respiration and excretion in fish.
