THE MEASUREMENT OF THE RESPIRATORY EXCHANGE OF AQUATIC ANIMALS

ANCEL B. KEYS 1

1 SCRIPPS INSTITUTION OF OCEANOGRAPHY, LA JOLLA, CALIFORNIA

The methods previously used for the measurements of the gas exchange of aquatic animals are discussed. Of the three general methods, two were subjected to careful investigation in experiments on marine fishes.

The method finally developed for the study of aquatic respiration is described in detail and typical results obtained by its use are given. It is shown that the method yields consistent results which may be accepted as measures of standard metabolism.
