Aerobic scope measurements of fishes in an era of climate change: respirometry, relevance and recommendations (2013, background): “…of adult pink salmon occurs at 21°C and aerobic scope decreases with decreasing temperature (Clark et al., 2011), yet if reproduction was attempted at 21°C it would fail spectacularly because the optimal temperature for spawning in Pacific salmonids is typically 14°C (Richter and Kolmes, 2005).”
Anadromy and residency in steelhead and rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss): a review of the processes and patterns (2015, neutral): “mykiss because their distribution incorporates a wider range of thermal habitats than most Pacific salmonines (Kammerer and Heppell 2013; Richter and Kolmes 2005; Sloat and Osterback 2013).”
Impending extinction of salmon, steelhead, and trout (Salmonidae) in California (2013, background): “Anadromous salmonids can tolerate water temperatures from 0 to 25° C; however, survival and reproduction for most species are impaired at temperatures higher than 18°C (Brett 1971; Richter and Kolmes 2005).”
Slow dam passage in adult columbia river salmonids associated with unsuccessful migration : delayed negative effects of passage obstacles or condition-dependent mortality? (2007, background): “Fall Chinook salmon and steelhead encounter warm, and in some cases stressful, temperatures (18–23 °C; Richter and Kolmes 2005) during August and early September and then cooler temperatures as the run season progresses.”
Ephemeral floodplain habitats provide best growth conditions for juvenile Chinook salmon in a California river (2008, background): “Temperatures from 14°C to 19°C provide optimal growing conditions for juvenile Chinook salmon fed at 60% to 80% of satiation (Marine and Cech 2004; Richter and Kolmes 2005).”
