Identifying the realized thermal habitat of animals is important for understanding life history and population processes, yet methods to estimate realized thermal use are lacking for many small-bodied organisms, including imperilled fishes. Analysis of oxygen isotopes provides one solution, but requires the development of species-specific fractionation equations. To date, such equations have generally been limited to commercial or game fish species. Here, we de veloped a field-based fractionation equation for the threatened silver shiner Notropis photogenis to better understand the thermal ecology of the species in an urban watershed. Archived otoliths were analyzed for oxygen isotope values (δ18O). There was a significant linear relationship between otolith isotope fractionation and water temperature, described by δOotolith(VPBD) − δOwater(VPBD) = 32.03 − 0.21(°C). Results indicate that otolith isotope techniques can be used to identify the average relative temperature occupied by silver shiner, representing the first investigation of oxygen isotopes to understand thermal occupancy of the species. This field-based equation provides an opportunity to understand how silver shiner may respond to alterations in stream temperatures resulting from urbanization and climate effects and may be useful in identifying thermal refugia for the species. Field-based, species-specific fractionation equations can provide insights into the thermal ecology of many small-bodied fishes, which are increasingly imperilled due to thermal stressors.

用于保护濒危鱼类的野外氧同位素分馏:受威胁的银光鱼 Notropis photogenis 的应用

确定动物已实现的热栖息地对于了解生活史和种群过程很重要,但许多小型生物(包括濒危鱼类)缺乏估算已实现热利用的方法。氧同位素分析提供了一种解决方案,但需要开发特定物种的分馏方程。迄今为止,此类方程通常仅限于商业或狩猎鱼类。在这里,我们为受威胁的银光鱼 Notropis photogenis 开发了一个基于现场的分馏方程,以更好地了解城市流域中该物种的热生态。对存档的耳石进行氧同位素值 (δ18O) 分析。耳石同位素分馏与水温呈显着线性关系,由 δOotolith(VPBD) − δOwater(VPBD) = 32.03 − 0.21(°C) 描述。结果表明,耳石同位素技术可用于确定银发光体占据的平均相对温度,这是首次对氧同位素进行研究,以了解该物种的热占据情况。这个基于现场的方程提供了一个机会,可以了解银光鱼如何对城市化和气候影响导致的溪流温度变化做出反应,并且可能有助于确定该物种的热避难所。基于现场的、特定于物种的分馏方程可以提供对许多小型鱼类的热生态学的见解,这些鱼类因热应激因素而日益受到威胁。结果表明,耳石同位素技术可用于确定银发光体所占据的平均相对温度,这是对氧同位素的首次研究,以了解该物种的热占据情况。这个基于现场的方程提供了一个机会,可以了解银光鱼如何对城市化和气候影响导致的河流温度变化做出反应,并且可能有助于确定该物种的热避难所。基于现场的、特定于物种的分馏方程可以提供对许多小型鱼类的热生态学的见解,这些鱼类因热应激因素而日益受到威胁。结果表明,耳石同位素技术可用于确定银发光体占据的平均相对温度,这是首次对氧同位素进行研究,以了解该物种的热占据情况。这个基于现场的方程提供了一个机会,可以了解银光鱼如何对城市化和气候影响导致的溪流温度变化做出反应,并且可能有助于确定该物种的热避难所。基于现场的、特定于物种的分馏方程可以提供对许多小型鱼类的热生态学的见解,这些鱼类因热应激因素而日益受到威胁。这个基于现场的方程提供了一个机会,可以了解银光鱼如何对城市化和气候影响导致的河流温度变化做出反应,并且可能有助于确定该物种的热避难所。基于现场的、特定于物种的分馏方程可以提供对许多小型鱼类的热生态学的见解,这些鱼类因热应激因素而日益受到威胁。这个基于现场的方程提供了一个机会,可以了解银光鱼如何对城市化和气候影响导致的溪流温度变化做出反应,并且可能有助于确定该物种的热避难所。基于现场的、特定于物种的分馏方程可以提供对许多小型鱼类的热生态学的见解,这些鱼类因热应激因素而日益受到威胁。
