Oxygen consumption in relation to sustained exercise and social stress in Arctic charr ( Salvelinus alpinus L.)
Abstract Rates of oxygen consumption were measured repeatedly in feeding groups of Arctic charr ( Salvelinus alpinus L.) subjected to moderate sustained exercise or allowed to perform routine swimming activity (control). Oxygen consumption did not differ significantly between treatments. Agonistic a...
