The Construction, Development, and Operation of a Fish Biological Monitoring System.

Abstract

Recent concepts of biological monitoring are given. All components of the VPI and State University biological monitoring system are described. Maintenance and operating procedures for the latter system are given. This system rapidly and continuously monitors the breathing behavior of the bluegill sunfish by computer technology. Components of the system are housed in a trailer to centralize and preserve the equipment. Chlorinated tapwater and arbitrary Reference mixture (ARM) have been used in the system and have proven it to be feasible. (Author)
