Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book presents research from the 1970s on the effects of sudden salinity and temperature changes on brown shrimp (Penaeus aztecus) physiology and behavior. The research was sponsored by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers to help them understand the impact of engineering works - such as flood control and dredging - on the ecology of coastal waters, where brown shrimp are commercially and biologically important. The author studied salinity and temperature tolerance, time course of acclimation and adaptation, respiratory rates, blood osmotic and ion regulation, as well as the effects of salinity changes with altered ratios of sodium, potassium, calcium, and magnesium. The book's insights on brown shrimp physiology and their capacity for acclimation provide a valuable resource for ecologists, physiologists, and conservationists, and anyone with an interest in understanding marine life.
