Respiration rate

The respiration rate is a parameter which is used in ecological and agronomical modeling. In theoretical production ecology and aquaculture, it typically refers to respiration per unit of time (usually loss of biomass by respiration per unit of weight), also referred to as relative respiration rate. In theoretical production ecology, biomass is expressed as dry weight, in aquaculture as wet fish weight. The respiration rate is dependent of species, type of tissue or organ studied and temperature.

This article is about the parameter used in ecological and agronomical modeling. For the measurement of breathing, see respiratory rate.

gollark: I wouldn't buy one because I already have one which I would email to myself.
gollark: I would simply obtain a laptop.
gollark: But not #-4.
gollark: I can say in advance that I wrote entry #-7.
