• Evaluating performance costs of sexually selected traits (2007, background): “2002; Blake 2004).”
• The shape of success in a turbulent world: wave exposure filtering of coral reef herbivory (2017, background): “Herbivorous fish rely largely on their pectoral fins for propulsion (Fulton 2007), and are therefore regarded as optimally suited to exploit benthic resources and manoeuvre closely around complex reef structures (Blake 2004).”
• Stickleback research: the now and the next (2013, background): “Moreover, lateral plates can experience selection through effects on other traits under selection, including swimming ability (Bergstrom, 2002; Blake, 2004; Hendry et al., 2011), growth rate (Marchinko and Schluter, 2007; Barrett et al., 2009a), and buoyancy (Myhre and Klepaker, 2009).”
• Spatial management of Indian Ocean tropical tuna fisheries: potential and perspectives (2014, background): “As larger fish generally have the potential to swim faster than smaller fish (Blake, 2004), it seems reasonable to hypothesize that fully mature yellowfin and bigeye tunas typically caught in the Chagos are at least as mobile as juveniles.”
• Swimming speed performance in coral reef fishes: field validations reveal distinct functional groups (2007, methodology): “Indeed, previous empirical comparisons of swimming speed performance among fishes using BCF and MPF modes have found conflicting trends of comparative speed performance (e.g., Beamish 1978; Walker and Westneat 2002; Blake 2004).”
• On the best design for undulatory swimming (2013, background): “The goal here is to describe the optimality of undulatory swimming beyond the naive arguments of maximisation of thrust and minimisation of drag (Blake 2004).”
• Increasing ocean temperature reduces the metabolic performance and swimming ability of coral reef damselfishes (2011, background): “Swimming is one of the most physiologically and physically challenging activities fish perform, which may explain why the eco-morphology of most coral reef fishes is optimized for this critical task (e.g. Wainwright et al., 2002; Blake, 2004; Fulton et al., 2005).”
