Abstract | Juvenile steelhead trout and juvenile chinook, coho and sockeye salmon were tested at different temperatures at the same concentration of air-supersaturated water. Supersaturated water concentrations in different tests were 115, 116, 117, 118 and 120% saturation. Increased temperatures cause a significant (P <0/005) increase in steelhead mortality. |
