Flow regime, temperature, and biotic interactions drive differential declines of trout species under climate change
Broad-scale studies of climate change effects on freshwater species have focused mainly on
temperature, ignoring critical drivers such as flow regime and biotic interactions. We use …

The cold‐water climate shield: delineating refugia for preserving salmonid fishes through the 21st century
The distribution and future fate of ectothermic organisms in a warming world will be dictated
by thermalscapes across landscapes. That is particularly true for stream fishes and cold …
