Summary:
Populations of Atlantic salmon have a surprisingly
good capacity to adjust to warmer temperatures that are being seen with climate
change, a group of scientists has discovered. The finding about Atlantic
species adds to recent research on heat tolerance of Pacific salmon. The study
addressed questions around how climate change might affect salmon species
distribution and abundance.

Populations of Atlantic salmon have a surprisingly good
capacity to adjust to warmer temperatures that are being seen with climate
change, a group of scientists at the University of Oslo and University of
British Columbia have discovered. The finding about Atlantic species adds to
recent UBC-supported research on heat tolerance of Pacific salmon.
The new
study, a collaboration between Norwegian and Canadian researchers, was recently
published in Nature Communications. Funded by the Norwegian Research
Council, it addressed questions around how climate change might affect salmon
species distribution and abundance.
UBC authors
of the study include Katja Anttila, a postdoctoral fellow who now works at the
University of Turku in Finland, and Tony Farrell, Chair in Sustainable
Aquaculture.
Scientists
studied wild salmon from two European rivers. They compared a cold-water
population from Norway's northern Alta River, where water temperatures have not
exceeded 18 C for 30 years, with warm-water populations from France's Dordogne
River, located 3,000 kilometres south, where annual water temperatures
regularly exceed 20 C.
Eggs from
both populations were hatched at the University of Oslo, where they were raised
at 12 or 20 C. Despite substantially different natural environments, both
populations had remarkably similar capabilities when warmed.
When reared
at 12 C temperatures, salmon from both populations developed cardiac
arrhythmias at 21 to 23 C, after a maximum heart rate of 150 beats per minute.
But those raised at 20 C developed cardiac arrhythmias at a surprising 27.5 C,
after the heart reached 200 beats per minute. Researchers found that increasing
the fish's acclimation temperature by 8 C raised temperature tolerance by 6 C.
"The
results are surprising," Farrell said. "A fish faced with
uncomfortably warm temperatures might relocate or even die if it is too
extreme. Here we have evidence for warm acclimation of a commercially and
culturally important fish species."
