Patterns of Movement in Intertidal Fishes

, 1988
The intertidal zone frequently represents a rich source of food and shelter and as such is inhabited by a wide variety of animals. Many of them are able to withstand the changing environmental conditions and live there continuously. Others, lacking this ability, avoid the zone at low tide and occupy the area only when it is immersed.

Temperature Sensitivity of Two Species of Intertidal Fishes

Copeia, 1970
Clinocottus analis and Hypsoblennius gilberti have similar latitudinal distributions in the eastern Pacific Ocean and occur together in the intertidal environment from central California to Baja California. Although they occupy similar habitats in the temperate zone, these two species differ in origin. C.

Local distribution and thermal ecology of two intertidal fishes

Oecologia, 2005
Geographic variability in the physiological attributes of widely distributed species can be a result of phenotypic plasticity or can reflect evolutionary responses to a particular habitat. In the field, we assessed thermal variability in low and high intertidal pools and the distribution of resident fish species Scartichthys viridis and transitory ...

A method for long-term measurement of respiration in intertidal fishes during simulated intertidal conditions

Journal of Fish Biology, 1995
Aquatic and aerial respiration of the amphibious fishes Lipophrys pholis and Periophthalmus barbarus were examined using a newly designed flow‐through respirometer system. The system allowed long‐term measurements of oxygen consumption and carbon dioxide release during periods of aquatic and aerial respiration. The Mo 2 of L. pholis, measured at 15° C,

Physiological Adaptations of Fishes to Tropical Intertidal Environments

Fish Physiology, 2005
Publisher Summary This chapter presents physiological adaptations of fishes to tropical intertidal environments. The chapter focuses on the tropical intertidal zone and describes the habitat types, the nature of environmental changes that fishes are likely to experience therein, and the major groups of resident fish.
