Smaller adult fish size in warmer water is not explained by elevated metabolism

HF Wootton, JR Morrongiello, T Schmitt… - Ecology …, 2022 - Wiley Online Library
Fish and other ectotherms living in warmer waters often grow faster as juveniles, mature
earlier, but become smaller adults. Known as the temperature‐size rule (TSR), this pattern is …

Experimental evidence of gradual size‐dependent shifts in body size and growth of fish in response to warming

M Huss, M Lindmark, P Jacobson… - Global Change …, 2019 - Wiley Online Library
