Abstract: Exposure to alkaline water (pH > 9.0) is physiologically challenging for fish, yet our understanding of the physiology of alkaline tolerance in fishes is limited to a small number of ihighly specialized species. This study aimed to characterize mechanisms of alkaline tolerance in brook stickleback (Culaea inconstans), a fish species with a broad pH habitat range, including highly alkaline waters such as Buffalo Lake (pH = 9.2) in Alberta, Canada. Stickleback from Buffalo Lake and a neutral reference lake (B… Show more
