Loss of acclimation response of brook trout acclimated to three thermal regimes for 2-years and then moved to a common colder temperature
February 12, 2025
This dataset contains records of body sizes and critical thermal maximum test results of brook trout reared for 2 years under three different temperature regimes (+0 °C (the average daily water temperature of a nearby long-term study site), as well as +2 °C and +4 °C above that daily average), moved to a common colder temperature (~15 °C), and thermal tolerance measured using a critical thermal maximum test where thermal ramp rate was 2 °C per hour three, seven, 14, 21, 28, and 42 days later.

How quickly do brook trout lose long-term thermal acclimation? How quickly do brook trout lose long-term thermal acclimation?
Abundances of coldwater adapted stream fish populations are declining largely due to anthropogenic influences, including increased temperature. To persist in streams with unsuitable thermal habitat, fish must move to coldwater patches, acclimate, or adapt to water temperatures above thermal optima. Brook trout, a coldwater adapted salmonid, has previously displayed physiological...
