Fish Physiology, 24
Description
Traditionally, behaviour and physiology have been considered two separate fields of biology with the majority of available literature
focusing on one or the other. Recently the need for a multidisciplinary approach to these topics has been realised, highlighted by some
of the sessions to be held at the 2003 annual meeting of the Society for Integrative and Comparative Biology such as ?regulation of behaviour?
and – mechanisms of behaviour?. The proposed volume aims to bring together these disciplines in a comprehensive review of the available
literature. Volume 24 will be novel in actively bridging these two areas of fish biology together and considering them
as inextricably linked. The progression of chapters focuses on different aspects of the life history of a fish, from predator avoidance
through to reproduction, each written by scientists currently bridging the gap between behaviour and physiology in their own specialised
subdiscipline.
Audience
Marine scientists, fish researchers, undergraduate students studying fish behavior, fishery biologists, and physiologists.
