An experimental evaluation of competitive and thermal effects on brown trout (Salmo trutta) and Bonneville cutthroat trout (Oncorhynchus clarkii utah) performance along an altitudinal gradient (2005, background): “…cold incubation conditions may offer the best explanation for the lack of self-sustaining, local populations of brown trout at high elevations of our system as well as in other western North American streams (Vincent and Miller 1969; Rahel and Nibbelink 1999; de la Hoz Franco and Budy 2005).”
Temperature and Competition between Bull Trout and Brook Trout: A Test of the Elevation Refuge Hypothesis (2007, background): “A common distribution pattern among many now- rare native potamodromous salmonids is restriction to high-elevation headwaters, with replacement by non- native fishes in lower-elevation reaches (Larson and Moore 1985; Fausch 1989; Paul and Post 2001; de la Hoz Franco and Budy 2005).”
Comparative Thermal Requirements of Westslope Cutthroat Trout and Rainbow Trout: Implications for Species Interactions and Development of Thermal Protection Standards (2007, background): “The current restricted distribution of native cutthroat trout to headwater reaches in many drainages indicates that water temperature is probably a key factor influencing their persistence (Paul and Post 2001; Sloat et al. 2001; de la Hoz Franco and Budy 2005).”
