Description:

It takes more energy for fish to survive in warm waters. But, it turns out that the costs may be even higher for larger individuals compared to smaller ones, according to a new study by Messmer et al.(2016). If resources become limited for big fish at higher temperatures, climate change could dramatically impact fisheries productivity and ecosystem health.
