Quicktime

Kinematics of the pectoral fin during steady horizontal locomotion by the bamboo shark (Chiloscyllium plagiosum). Lateral and ventral views are simultaneous. Wilga and Lauder (2001) J. Morph. 249:195-204.
   

Quicktime

Flow over the pectoral fin during benthic station holding by the bamboo shark (Chiloscyllium plagiosum). Wilga and Lauder (2001) J. Morph. 249:195-204.
   

Quicktime

Motion of the finlets during locomotion in mackerel (Scomber japonicus). See Nauen and Lauder (2000) J. Exp. Biol. 203:2247-2259.
   

Quicktime

The vortex wake of the heterocercal tail in sturgeon (Acipenser transmontanus). The wake is visualized using a laser light sheet and small reflective particles. Liao and Lauder (2000) J. Exp. Biol. 203:3585-3594.
   

Quicktime

Kinematics of locomotion in sturgeon (Acipenser transmontanus). This video was obtained synchronously with the next one to illustrate body position during steady horizontal locomotion. The tail is beating through the anterior edge of a laser light sheet. Liao and Lauder (2000) J. Exp. Biol. 203:3585-3594.
   

Quicktime

Kinematics of the caudal fin in a mackerel (Scomber japonicus). See Gibb, Dickson, and Lauder (1999) J. Exp. Biol. 202: 2433-2447.
