Upper Lethal Temperatures of Some British Columbia Freshwater Fishes
During the summers of 1950 and 1951 the upper lethal temperature was measured for 14 species of freshwater fishes, representing five families. The fish were captured from lakes in the southern Okanagan Valley, and the experiments were conducted in the Summerland Trout Hatchery, Summerland, B.C. The...
