Multiple stressor effects of hypoxia and metals on ventilation, activity, bioaccumulation, and loss of equilibrium in fathead minnows.

Hypoxia is an increasing concern in freshwater ecosystems, driven by warming, stratification, and nutrient enrichment. Fish cope with hypoxia through behavioural and ventilatory adjustments, yet growing evidence suggests that certain metals can impair these critical compensatory mechanisms. It is currently unknown whet...
