Effect of low- and high-carbohydrate diets on swimming economy: a crossover study [PDF]
Background Swimming economy refers to the rate of energy expenditure relative to swimming speed of movement, is inversely related to the energetic cost of swimming, and is as a key factor influencing endurance swimming performance.

Establishing zebrafish as a novel exercise model: swimming economy, swimming-enhanced growth and muscle growth marker gene expression. [PDF]
BackgroundZebrafish has been largely accepted as a vertebrate multidisciplinary model but its usefulness as a model for exercise physiology has been hampered by the scarce knowledge on its swimming economy, optimal swimming speeds and cost of transport ...

Effect of short-term regulated temperature variations on the swimming economy of Atlantic salmon smolts. [PDF]
Migratory species travelling long distances between habitats to spawn or feed are well adapted to optimize their swimming economy. However, human activities, such as river regulation, represent potential threats to fish migration by changing environmental parameters that will have impact on their metabolism.

Swimming Energy Economy in Bottlenose Dolphins Under Variable Drag Loading [PDF]
Instrumenting animals with tags contributes additional resistive forces (weight, buoyancy, lift, and drag) that may result in increased energetic costs; however, additional metabolic expense can be moderated by adjusting behavior to maintain power output.

The Shadow Blue Economy: Optimizing non-target Catch of the Blue Swimming Crab Fisheries in North Coast of Central Java, Indonesia [PDF]
Blue Economy is the concept of sustainable use and management of resources, including small-scale blue swimming crab (BSC) fisheries. The coastal area of Pati District is one of the BSC landing bases on the north coast of Central Java (part of Indonesian

Kelp-Fed Beef, Swimming Caribou, Feral Reindeer, and Their Hunters: Island Mammals in a Marine Economy [PDF]
Aleutian Islands and Alaska Peninsula residents have selectively introduced land mammals to their primarily marine based economy over the past two centuries. This paper describes these many introductions, contexts, and the longer term roles of these cattle, sheep, reindeer, and other land mammals in discrete island settings and the regional food ...

Swimming upstream: community economies for a different coastal rural development in Sweden [PDF]
AbstractThe EU Blue Growth agenda is being implemented at a time when European coastal fisheries and traditional fishing communities are struggling to survive or have already vanished from areas where they used to flourish. Driven by the strong conviction that current disadvantaged and vulnerable coastal fishers still have a central role to play in ...

Field swimming behavior in largemouth bass deviates from predictions based on economy and propulsive efficiency [PDF]
ABSTRACTLocomotion is energetically expensive. This may create selection pressures that favor economical locomotor strategies, such as the adoption of low-cost speeds and efficient propulsive movements. For swimming fish, the energy expended to travel a unit distance, or cost of transport (COT), has a U-shaped relationship to speed.
