9781333215279: Use of Infrared Radiation in the Study of Fish Behavior

Synopsis

This book investigates a novel approach to observing fish behaviour by utilizing infrared radiation. The author explores the potential of this technique as a tool for studying fish behavior, which has traditionally been limited by the need for visible light. The book begins by examining the limitations of visible light in underwater environments and the potential advantages of using infrared radiation. It then delves into the technical aspects of infrared imaging, including the equipment and methods used to capture images of fish in darkness. The author presents original research conducted on silver salmon (O. kisutch) to assess their reaction to infrared radiation. The book concludes by discussing the implications of these findings for future research on fish behavior and the potential applications of infrared imaging in fisheries management and conservation
