Tolerance of parr of Arctic charr, Salvelinus alpinus, to reduced dissolved oxygen concentrations

One year old pan Item Windermere (north west England) tolerated lower incipient lethal levels of oxygen [18 20 mg 1 1 : 15 17% air saturation value (ASV)] at lower (5, 10°C) than at higher (15, 20°C) an elimation temperatures (2·2 2·4 mg 1 1 22 25% ASV). Values were not significantly different for t...

Description
Summary:One year old pan Item Windermere (north west England) tolerated lower incipient lethal levels of oxygen [18 20 mg 1 1 : 15 17% air saturation value (ASV)] at lower (5, 10°C) than at higher (15, 20°C) an elimation temperatures (2·2 2·4 mg 1 1 22 25% ASV). Values were not significantly different for two races of charr in the lake and are amongst the lowest recorded for salmenid species.
