The Physiology of Dolphins 1st Edition

The Physiology of Dolphins — 1st Edition by Andreas Fahlman; Sascha K. Hooker

Dive into a definitive resource that reveals how dolphins thrive in oceans, coastal waters, and polar seas. This authoritative 1st edition combines rigorous science with accessible explanation, making complex topics—diving mechanics, cardiopulmonary function, thermoregulation, gas exchange, metabolism, and sensory biology—clear and applicable for readers across disciplines.

Grounded in contemporary research and field observations from the Atlantic, Pacific, Mediterranean, Arctic, and Southern Oceans, this volume connects physiology to real-world issues: conservation planning, rehabilitation, veterinary care, and environmental policy. The authors’ expertise offers detailed insight into diving adaptations, oxygen management under pressure, and the physiological responses to human-induced stressors such as noise and pollution.

Perfect for marine biologists, veterinarians, graduate students, and conservation practitioners, this book balances technical depth with practical relevance. Case studies and comparative analyses illuminate species-specific strategies and global population health, helping readers translate knowledge into better protection and management of dolphin populations around the world.
