Swimming mechanics and propulsive efficiency in the chambered nautilus
The chambered nautilus (Nautilus pompilius) encounters severe environmental hypoxia during diurnal vertical movements in the ocean. The metabolic cost of locomotion (C(met)) and swimming performance depend on how efficiently momentum is imparted to the water and how long on-board oxygen stores last....
