Using a thermistor flowmeter with attached video camera for monitoring sponge excurrent speed and oscular behaviour
A digital, four-channel thermistor flowmeter integrated with time-lapse cameras was developed as an experimental tool for measuring pumping rates in marine sponges, particularly those with small excurrent openings (oscula). Combining flowmeters with time-lapse imagery yielded valuable insights into...
