Age, not growth, explains larger body size of Pacific cod larvae during recent marine heatwaves

Abstract Marine heatwaves (MHWs) are often associated with physiological changes throughout biological communities but can also result in biomass declines that correspond with shifts in phenology. We examined the response of larval Pacific cod (Gadus macrocephalus) to MHWs in the Gulf of Alaska acro...
