Individual-based models reveal thermal refuges insufficient for brown trout survival during extreme heat events, predicting up to 86% mortality despite refuge availability. New paper! besjournals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/...
Warming riverscapes annually challenge the role of thermal refuges for thermoregulating salmonids
While our model assumes static thermal refuge conditions due to data limitations, our findings highlight the limits of riverscape thermal refuges as a conservation tool under intensifying climatic co...
