dc.description.abstract | 1. 1. A relationship is evident between oxygen consumption (OC in cm3/hr) and weight (WT in g) such that: OC = -0.580 (WT)1.0532. 2. Fathead minnows failed to exhibit immediate rate compensation as a result of acute temperature changes. Minnows showed an exponential increase in weight-specific oxygen consumption with temperature (in [deg]C), resulting in a Q10 of over three. The equation is: OC = 100.0482 (Temp.) - 1.268.3. 3. Minnows acclimated to water temperatures of 5-21[deg]C showed a steady increase in opercular movement rates (OMR) (ventilation rates) as expressed by the equation: OMR = 0.1968 (Temp.)2 + 1.064.4. 4. Grouping more than two fish per chamber resulted in an increase in oxygen consumption. The relationship of group size (GS) to oxygen consumption is: OC = 0.04059 (GS)2 - 0.2017 (GS) + 0.5353.5. 5. Oxygen consumption is a function of dissolved oxygen level. This relationship is shown by the equation: OC = 0.003049 (OL)3 - 0.06359 (OL)2 + 0.4211 (OL) - 0.4020 where OL is oxygen level. Due to high variability, it is statistically impossible to determine oxygen level ranges in which they conformed and those in which they regulated. | en_US |
