Cardiovascular Performance and Adaptations of Arctic Char
Principal Investigator: Graham, Mark S
Licensed Year(s): 1991
Summary: The study will involve capturing freshwater char to use in laboratory experiments. The body temperature of fish is the same as the water they live in. Therefore, arctic fishes live their lives at or near the freezing mark. This work will investigate the mechanical functions of Arctic Char hearts: how powerful, how much blood they can pump and what is a reasonable maximum work load....
