Abstract Winter mortality can be a strong selective pressure on animals living in temperate regions, especially for young and small individuals. Therefore, understanding the mechanism for its size-dependence is important to predict population dynamics of the species in a fluctuating environment. In this study, we experimentally investigated the effects of body size, temperature and energy reserve depletion on the overwinter mortality of young mudskipper fish (Boleophthalmus pectinirostris). Small size-class fish (

年轻弹涂鱼的冬季死亡率：大小、温度和能量消耗的影响

摘要 冬季死亡率对生活在温带地区的动物来说是一种强大的选择压力，尤其是对于年轻和小型个体。因此，了解其大小依赖性的机制对于预测波动环境中物种的种群动态非常重要。在这项研究中，我们通过实验研究了体型、温度和能量储备消耗对年轻弹涂鱼 (Boleophthalmus pectinirostris) 越冬死亡率的影响。小型鱼（
