Published in 2025 at "Journal of Applied Ecology"

DOI: 10.1111/1365-2664.70146

Abstract: Thermal refuge use constitutes an important thermoregulatory behavior for the persistence of cold-water-dependent salmonids, such as brown trout Salmo trutta, in temperate riverscapes undergoing climate change. The ability of thermal refuges to mitigate summertime physiological… read more here.

Published in 2017 at "Canadian Journal of Fisheries and Aquatic Sciences"

DOI: 10.1139/cjfas-2016-0395

Abstract: Thermal refuges form important habitat for cold-water fishes in the face of rising temperatures. As fish become concentrated in refuges, food resources may become depleted. In this study, we used invertebrate drift sampling and fish… read more here.

DOI: 10.3390/cli13030044

Abstract: Thermal refuges in streams are essential for the survival of coldwater fish species such as Redband trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) in landscapes with stressful or lethal stream temperatures. We utilized an uncrewed aerial system (UAS) mounted… read more here.
