Production, mortality, and infectivity of planktonic larval sea lice, Lepeophtheirus salmonis (Krøyer, 1837): current knowledge and implications for epidemiological modelling (2018, background): “failure in larval development, and it was speculated that this temperature could be close to the limit of their biological tolerance, at least for the tested lice (Samsing et al., 2016).”
Development of the salmon louse Lepeophtheirus salmonis parasitic stages in temperatures ranging from 3 to 24°C (2019, methodology): “The present study provides fundamental infor - mation required to better parameterize present and future infection pressure models (Groner et al. 2016, Rittenhouse et al. 2016, Sandvik et al. 2016).”
