Methods for the Analysis of Developmental Respiration Patterns.

<p>This thesis looks at the problem of developmental respiration in <em>Sarcophaga crassipalpis</em> Macquart from the biological and instrumental points of view and adapts mathematical and statistical tools in order to analyze the data gathered. The biological motivation and current state of research is given as well as instrumental considerations and problems in the measurement of carbon dioxide production. A wide set of mathematical and statistical tools are used to analyze the time series produced in the laboratory. The objective is to assemble a methodology for the production and analysis of data that can be used in further developmental respiration research.</p>
