Body size and temperature affect metabolic and cardiac thermal tolerance in fish
Abstract Environmental warming is associated with reductions in ectotherm body sizes, suggesting that larger individuals may be more vulnerable to climate change. The mechanisms driving size-specific vulnerability to temperature are unknown but are required to finetune predictions of fisheries produ...
