PREFACE
Locomotion in
fish consists of a set of motions and behaviours that are determined by the
morphology, anatomy, physiology, and motivation of the particular species in
question, as well as extrinsic factors such as water temperature, velocity,
concentration of dissolved gasses, and contaminant load. Early studies on the
subject typically employed laboratory-based experiments and forced swimming
tests to study questions related to fish locomotion, and our understanding of
swimming capacity and exercise physiology has benefited (and continues to
benefit) immensely from this work. However, there has been an increasing
interest in studying fish movements under more natural, and less confining,
conditions using new and innovative techniques and technologies. These studies
have (1) introduced novel protocols for measuring swimming capacity and
physiology, (2) questioned long-held theories related to fish locomotion, (3)
integrated behaviour, performance, muscle mechanics, cardiovascular dynamics,
energetics, and exercise physiology, and (4) shed new light on complex
behaviours such as foraging, migration, and predator avoidance. This symposium
seeks to highlight some of these new and exciting areas of research, such that
we can continue and build on the rich body of knowledge that has been generated
by fish locomotion researchers over the past century.
