REDUCED GROWH OF ATLANTIC COD (GADUS MORHUA) IN CHRONIC HYPOXIA: THE EFFECT OF VARYING MEAL FREQUENCY

In the Gulf of St. Lawrence, Atlantic cod frequently spend time in waters with low levels of dissolved oxygen (hypoxia). In a previous experiment (Chabot and Dutil 1999), we showed that growth rate of Atlantic cod declined when dissolved oxygen fell below 73 % saturation. At 45 % saturation, growth...
