Detecting range shifts among Australian fishes in response to climate change (2011, background): “For instance, vagrant damselfishes (Abudefduf vaigiensis) can survive under laboratory conditions down to at least 158C (Figueira et al. 2009), whereas the same species disappears in the field below 178C (D.”
Effects of climate change on South African estuaries and associated fish species (2013, background): “Figueira et al. (2009) and Figueira & Booth 237 Clim Res 57: 233–248, 2013 (2010) examined the performance of tropical fish species as they recruited into temperate environments along the southeast coast of Australia, and concluded that for the majority of tropical fish species overwinter survival…”
Latitudinal shifts in coral reef fishes: why some species do and others do not shift (2014, background): “Therefore, although tropical fishes may be able to successfully settle and persist within suitable temperate reef habitats (Booth et al. 2007; Figueira et al. 2009), the full impact on each species population following such settlement may take months to years to become apparent.”
