Metabolic depression in cunner (Tautogolabrus adspersus) is influenced by ontogeny, and enhances thermal tolerance.

To examine the effect of ontogeny on metabolic depression in the cunner (Tautogolabrus adspersus), and to understand how ontogeny and the ability to metabolically depress influence this species' upper thermal tolerance: 1) the metabolic rate of 9°C-acclimated cunner of three size classes [0.2-0...
