"Fish are poikilothermic meaning their internal body temperature reflects the temperature of their surrounding environment. For this reason, temperature is a strong predictor of species distribution and can be used to assess the likelihood that fish species can survive in newly invaded regions. In 2018, the Science and Research Branch of the Ontario Ministry of Natural Resources and Forestry compiled thermal metrics (e.g., critical thermal maximum and minimum, final temperature preferendum, and optimal spawning temperature) for numerous current and potential invasive species that could establish in the Laurentian Great Lakes region. The objective of this report was to apply a similar approach to explore the likelihood of establishment for non-native fishes that pose a risk to the Prairie region using thermal metrics"--Abstract.
