South American galaxiids occupy both Patagonia and the ichthyogeographic Chilean
Province, encompassing glacial Andean deep lakes, shallow plateau lakes, reservoirs, short …

Water temperature is an abiotic master variable for the survival of aquatic organisms. Global
warming alters the thermal regimes of rivers and, thus, poses a threat to freshwater …

Temperature is an important environmental factor that affects how organisms allocate
metabolic resources to physiological processes. Laboratory experiments that determine …

Climate change, fishing, and invasion by alien species are the drivers of global change that
mainly affect Patagonian marine fish assemblages. In this chapter, we reconstructed the …

Ecological networks offer valuable insights into community structure, key species
identification, and ecosystem management. Understanding how these networks respond to …

Eleginops maclovinus is a native species with potential for Chilean aquaculture. However,
its optimal stocking density and the impact on its physiology is unknown. The aim of this …

To predict the potential impacts of climate change on marine organisms, it is critical to
understand how multiple stressors constrain the physiology and distribution of species. We …

To make robust projectios of the impacts of climate change, it is critical to understand how
abiotic factors may interact to constrain the distribution and productivity of marine flora and …

Animals rely on their sensory systems to inform them of ecologically relevant environmental
variation. In the Southern Ocean, the thermal environment has remained between− 1.9 and …

Fluctuations in ambient temperature along with the presence of pathogenic microorganisms
can induce important cellular changes that alter the homeostasis of ectothermic fish. The aim …
