Early warning tool may protect river fish in heat waves
Researchers from the Swiss Federal Institute for Forest, Snow and Landscape Research (WSL) have proposed a warning tool that predicts, up to three weeks in advance, when river fish in Switzerland will be at risk from heat. As heat waves become more frequent with climate change, this early warning system gives people time to act and protect fish populations from future heat waves.
