Fish osmoregulation /
"In this book several specialists have analyzed and reviewed the new data on fish osmoregulation. The chapters present an integrative synthesis of the different aspects of osmoregulation in specific situations, function of osmoregulatory organs, general mechanisms and endocrine control. In addi...
