The apparatus shown in Fig. 1 is designed to adapt the oxygen dilution method of clinical lung-volume determination to the measurement of the total respiratory volume of various aquatic birds. In this method, the respiratory gases of the subject are mixed, through a mouthpiece, with a known quantity of oxygen, and the lung volume is calculated by the equation: (1) Lung Volume (Respiratory Volume) =
