Ontogenetic changes in temperature preference of Atlantic cod
Final thermal preferendum ( T ) experiments were conducted in a horizontal thermal gradient tank from the beginning of August 2001 to mid‐November 2001 using Atlantic cod Gadus morhua from 6·5 to 79·0 cm fork length ( L F ). The value of T varied significantly ( P < 0·005) with L F ( T = 7·23–0·0...
