Optimal Swimming Speed in Head Currents and Effects on Distance Movement of Winter-Migrating Fish
Migration is a commonly described phenomenon in nature that is often caused by spatial and temporal differences in habitat quality. However, as migration requires energy, the timing of migration may depend not only on differences in habitat quality, but also on temporal variation in migration costs. Such variation can, for instance, arise from changes in wind or current velocity for migrating b...
متن کاملWinter temperatures decrease swimming performance and limit distributions of tropical damselfishes
Coral reefs within 10° of the equator generally experience ≤3°C seasonal variation in water temperature. Ectotherms that have evolved in these conditions are therefore expected to exhibit narrow thermal optima and be very sensitive to the greater thermal variability (>6°C) experienced at higher latitudes (≥10°N/S). The impact of increased thermal variability on the fitness and distribution of t...
متن کاملAcute and long-term effects of winter swimming and whole-body cryotherapy on plasma antioxidative capacity in healthy women.
The effects of severe cold stress on total peroxyl radical trapping antioxidant capacity of plasma (TRAP) were studied in two groups of healthy women: a whole-body cryotherapy group (WBC, n = 10) and a winter swimming group (WS, n = 10). The biovariability of TRAP values was also analysed. The WBC group was exposed to -110 degrees C for 2 min, whereas the exposure for the WS group lasted 20 s i...
متن کاملThermal sensation and comfort in women exposed repeatedly to whole-body cryotherapy and winter swimming in ice-cold water.
Whole-body cryotherapy (WBC; -110 degrees C) and winter swimming (WS) in ice-cold water are severe ambient cold exposures, which are voluntarily practiced by humans in minimal clothing. The purpose was to examine thermal sensation and thermal comfort associated with WBC and WS. Twenty women similar in body mass index, age, physical activity, and use of hormonal contraception were pairwise rando...
متن کاملSwimming Across the Pacific: A Novel Swimming Interface for VR
Locomotion interfaces to virtual reality environments present many challenges as well as exciting opportunities. Many researchers have examined classes of human movement such as walking, flying, and bicycling as means of locomotion in VR. By contrast, little has been explored in swimming. We outline the current state of development of the Swimming Across the Pacific (SAP) project which aims to ...
