Effects of nutritional deprivation on juvenile green sturgeon growth and thermal tolerance

Effects of nutritional deprivation on juvenile green sturgeon growth and thermal tolerance

In the San Francisco Estuary (SFE), declines in the abundance of native fish species have been linked to altered food webs and reduced food availability (Moyle 2002; Feyrer et al. 2003; Kimmerer 2004). This is particularly concerning for protected green sturgeon (Acipenser medirostris Ayres, 1854) p...

Zusammenfassung:In the San Francisco Estuary (SFE), declines in the abundance of native fish species have been linked to altered food webs and reduced food availability (Moyle 2002; Feyrer et al. 2003; Kimmerer 2004). This is particularly concerning for protected green sturgeon (Acipenser medirostris Ayres, 1854) populations restricted to the SFE during early life stages.
