Maximal oxygen consumption increases with temperature in the European eel (Anguilla anguilla) through increased heart rate and arteriovenous extraction
We measured oxygen consumption, blood flow and heart rate at rest and at maximum activity in eels exposed to different temperatures. We found that, although the ability to increase heart rate in response to heavy exercise was reduced at temperatures close to the upper critical temperature, this did...
