This study shows that turbulence increases fish locomotor variability and energy expenditure by causing fluctuations in hydrodynamic forces.

The paper investigates how fish exploit velocity gradients to passively produce thrust, reducing locomotor costs by 74%.

This paper introduces a two-tier approach to study kinematic modulation in fish schools, finding that schooling fish exhibit higher positional and kinematic modulation than solitary fish, aiding energy conservation.

The paper examines how fish locomotor kinematics and energetics vary with environmental and biological factors, showing correlations between kinematic modulation and metabolic rate changes.

This study tracks giant danios in 3D to show they rarely form planar diamond schools, instead adopting a ladder formation that is more common and correlates with swimming speed.

This study shows that elongate tails in myliobatid rays increase hydrodynamic stability during gliding by generating drag and damping body oscillations.

The paper describes the anatomy and function of the tail in cownose rays, identifying a novel hydrodynamic sensory system that functions as a sensory antenna.

This study shows that schooling fish reduce their energy expenditure in turbulent flow by 63-79% compared to solitary fish.
