We measured anadromous juvenile blueback herring survival, growth rate and energy reserves across temperatures 21–33°C when fed a constant ration. Growth was more sensitive to warm temperatures than energy reserves. Survival remained high, yet smaller size at high temperatures may detrimentally delay emigration, increase predation and lower physiological resilience.
