Effects of marine heatwaves and fish predator cues on the growth and development of Pseudodiaptomus incisus (Shen & Lee, 1963) under laboratory conditions

Tóm tắt

Climate change, especially marine heat waves (MHW), is one of the greatest threats to global biodiversity because extreme warm sea surface temperature during MHW are often beyond the optimal thermal range and last longer than one generation of tropical coastal species. Moreover, the pace of changing environmental conditions is much faster than the ability of organisms to develop adaptive responses. However, we know little about the role of MHW transgenerational acclimation in shaping coastal species, particularly an ecologically relevant context with biotic interactions such as predation stress.
