Respirometry data of the sardine, Sardinops sagax
Description
A single experiment on the sardine species Sardinops sagax in a Loligo
Systems swim tunnel and Witrox oxygen probe system. There are three columns:
$Time
in seconds, $Oxygen
content recorded in percent air saturation, and
$Temperature
in °C. Mean temperature, salinity and atmospheric pressure are
supplied below to allow for conversion to oxygen concentration units.
