Multidimensional analysis of suction feeding performance in fishes: Fluid speed, acceleration, strike accuracy and the ingested volume of water
(The Company of Biologists, 2006-05-03)Suction feeding fish draw prey into the mouth using a flow field that they generate external to the head. In this paper we present a multidimensional perspective on suction feeding performance that we illustrate in ... -
The Pressures of suction feeding: The Relation between buccal pressure and induced fluid speed in centrarchid fishes
(The Company of Biologists, 2006-06-14)Suction feeding fish rapidly expand their oral cavity, resulting in a flow of water directed towards the mouth that is accompanied by a drop in pressure inside the buccal cavity. Pressure inside the mouth and fluid ...
