The present paper reviews the effects of water temperature and flow on migrations,
embryonic development, hatching, emergence, growth and life‐history traits in light of the …

According to life‐history theory, growth rates are subject to strong directional selection due
to reproductive and survival advantages associated with large adult body size. Yet, growth is …

Destruction of habitat is the major cause for loss of biodiversity including variation in life
history and habitat ecology. Each species and population adapts to its environment …

Conditions fish encounter during embryogenesis and early life history can leave lasting
effects not only on morphology, but also on growth rate, life‐history and behavioural traits …

Oncorhynchus mykiss form partially migratory populations with anadromous fish that
undergo marine migrations and residents that complete their life cycle in fresh water. Many …

Patterns of phenotypic change across environmental gradients (eg, latitude, altitude) have
long captivated the interest of evolutionary ecologists. The pattern and magnitude of …

Many ectotherms exhibit striking latitudinal gradients in lifespan. However, it is unclear
whether lifespan gradients in distantly related taxa share a common mechanistic …

This paper reviews the life history of brown trout and factors influencing decisions to migrate.
Decisions that maximize fitness appear dependent on size at age. In partly anadromous …

Water temperatures control life histories and diversity of aquatic species. Hydropower
regulation, particularly in high head systems, alters natural water temperature regimes …

Here, I review thermal influences on metabolic rates and aerobic scope; growth; adult body
size; and reproductive and behavioural traits, such as tendency and timing of the migration …
