Warmest spring on record in the United Kingdom provides insights into how a specialist spring‐flying butterfly may respond to future climate change

open access: yesInsect Conservation and Diversity, EarlyView.
Previous work indicates that the Duke of Burgundy butterfly, a specialist spring‐flying species in the United Kingdom, is poor at buffering its thoracic temperature as air temperatures rise. Taking advantage of unusually warm spring weather, we collected new field data and found that the species can lower its thoracic temperature more than expected in ...

Aerobic scope is sustained through a heatwave in juvenile Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar)

open access: yesJournal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Aquatic ectotherms are vulnerable to heatwave‐induced physiological stress, which arises from increased energy demands and reduced dissolved oxygen content in warmer waters. Understanding thermal physiology is critical for predicting how commercially and ecologically important populations could be affected by the increasing risk of rising ...

Intra‐annual energy density cycles of spring‐ and fall‐spawning Atlantic herring Clupea harengus reveal different reproductive allocation tactics

open access: yesJournal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Atlantic herring Clupea harengus are total spawners that exhibit a large degree of reproductive plasticity and have substantial intra‐annual variation in their energetic condition. Recent research suggests that the species may be declining in energetic condition in the northwest Atlantic Ocean from the few historical records, but comparisons ...

The impact of isosmotic conditions on the metabolism and hypoxia tolerance of a reportedly oxyconforming teleost

open access: yesJournal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Fish must manage the competing demands of ion balance and gas exchange across the gills – a physiological tension known as the osmorespiratory compromise. In dynamic estuarine environments, the osmorespiratory compromise may be exacerbated by variable salinity and periods of hypoxia that demand high respiratory work.

Chronic thermal stress affects growth, liver morphology and molecular responses but allows recovery at optimal temperature in juvenile zebrafish (Danio rerio)

open access: yesJournal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Climate‐driven aquatic heatwaves pose an increasing threat to fish populations by inducing prolonged thermal stress. However, the resilience of teleosts to chronic heat exposure and their capacity for recovery remains poorly understood. This study investigated the effects of chronic high‐temperature exposure on juvenile zebrafish (Danio rerio).
