Air-breathing frequency (fAB; breaths h–1) and rates of oxygen uptake per air breath (O2 uptake AB–1; mg kg–1) by G. carapo, as estimated at their immobile metabolic rate (IMR) or as measured when swimming gently at a speed of 10 cm s–1 and at active total metabolic rate (AMR) during an incremental critical swimming speed protocol in aquatic normoxia (∼18 kPa PO2) or hypoxia (4 kPa PO2).
