Climate warming accelerates somatic growth of an Arctic fish species in high-latitude lakes

Abstract High-latitude aquatic ecosystems are responding to rapid climate warming. A longer ice-free season with higher water temperatures may accelerate somatic growth in lake ectotherms, leading to widespread ecological implications. In fish, rising temperatures are expected to boost rates of food...
