  • Larval cardiorespiratory ontogeny and allometry in Xenopus laevis 

    Orlando, Kent, and Alan W. Pinder. 1995. "Larval cardiorespiratory ontogeny and allometry in Xenopus laevis." Physiological zoology 68(1): 63-75. doi:10.1086/physzool.68.1.30163918
    Very little is known about the early development of cardiorespiratory regulatory mechanisms in newly hatched amphibian larvae. We tested whether early cardiovascular responses to hypoxia reflect local flow regulation in ...
  • Oxygen transport in egg masses of the amphibians Rana sylvatica and Ambystoma maculatum: Convection, diffusion and oxygen production by algae 

    Pinder, Alan W., and Stephen C. Friet. 1994. "Oxygen transport in egg masses of the amphibians Rana sylvatica and Ambystoma maculatum: Convection, diffusion and oxygen production by algae." Journal of Experimental Biology 197: 17-30.
    Many amphibians lay their eggs in gelatinous masses up to 10-20 cm in diameter, posing problems for diffusive oxygen delivery. Oxygen may also be provided by water convection between eggs or by oxygen production by endogenous ...
  • The respiratory development of Atlantic salmon .1. Morphometry of gills, yolk sac and body surface 

    Wells, PR, and AW Pinder. 1996. "The respiratory development of Atlantic salmon .1. Morphometry of gills, yolk sac and body surface." Journal of Experimental Biology 199(12): 2725-2736.
    During development from larva to juvenile in Atlantic salmon, Salmo salar, there is a change in the anatomical potential for gas exchange among gills, body skin and yolk sac as the larvae resorb yolk, grow and develop ...
  • The respiratory development of Atlantic salmon: II. Partitioning of oxygen uptake among gills, yolk sac and body surfaces 

    Wells, Patrick R., and Alan W. Pinder. 1996. "The respiratory development of Atlantic salmon: II. Partitioning of oxygen uptake among gills, yolk sac and body surfaces." Journal of Experimental Biology 199(12): 2737-2744.
    During post-hatch development of Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar L.), O-2 uptake partitioning changes from primarily cutaneous to primarily branchial. Over 80% of post-hatch O-2 uptake was cutaneous, with the yolk sac responsible ...
