From gametogenesis to spawning: How climate‐driven warming affects teleost reproductive biology
Ambient temperature modulates reproductive processes, especially in poikilotherms such as
teleosts. Consequently, global warming is expected to impact the reproductive function of …

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 …

The role of mechanistic physiology in investigating impacts of global warming on fishes
Warming of aquatic environments as a result of climate change is already having
measurable impacts on fishes, manifested as changes in phenology, range shifts and …

Supplemental oxygen does not improve growth but can enhance reproductive capacity of fish
MR Skeeles, H Scheuffele… - Proceedings of the …, 2023 - royalsocietypublishing.org
Fish tend to grow faster as the climate warms but attain a smaller adult body size following
an earlier age at sexual maturation. Despite the apparent ubiquity of this phenomenon …

The mating system affects the temperature sensitivity of male and female fertility
To mitigate the effects of climate change, it is important to understand species' responses to
increasing temperatures. This has often been done by studying survival or activity at …
