Cartoons that illustrate evolution depict early vertebrates generating primordial limbs as they move onto land for the first time. But new findings indicate that some of these first ambulatory ...
Modern walking fish share the same simple gait, offering new clues about how ancient vertebrates first moved from water onto ...
A bio-inspired robot has been used to illustrate the mechanism by which some species of fish are able to walk on land, as reported in a Nature Communications paper. This demonstration may provide ...
Fish that are bred to be bolder or more shy show corresponding changes to their body shape and locomotion, suggesting that personality changes affect other seemingly unrelated traits. The findings ...
Waves and eddies : effects on fish behavior and habitat distribution / Paul W. Webb, Aline Cotel and Lorelle A. Meadows -- Biomechanics of rheotactic behavior in fishes / R.W. Blake and K.H.S. Chan -- ...
Researchers have introduced an innovative underwater vest equipped with an antioxidant MXene hydrogel for the sensitive recognition of fish locomotion. This novel device aims to deepen our ...
A quirk of nature has long baffled biologists: Why do animals push in directions that don’t point toward their goal, such as the side-to-side sashaying of a running lizard or cockroach? An engineer ...
An EU-funded project has developed robot fish with lateral line sensing, a sensing organ common to fish with no technological counterpart in man-made underwater vehicles. In an article published in ...
