The team's findings have been published in Nature: Scientific Reports: "Transition delay using biomimetic fish scale arrays", and in the Journal of Experimental Biology: "Streak formation in flow over ...

Figure 1: Geographical patterns in reef fish biodiversity in the Indian and Pacific oceans. The Centre-of-Overlap and the Centre-of-Accumulation hypotheses state that only the tails of species' ranges ...

Scientists in Europe researching aerodynamic forces have opened up some interesting new avenues of study inspired by fish scales. This new understanding of the flow patterns over the surface of the ...

How do scale patterns on fish provide understanding of the development of feathers, fur -- and even cancer? Biologists are investigating. When sea creatures first began crawling and slithering onto ...
