Projected shifts in fish species dominance in Wisconsin lakes under climate change

Abstract: Temperate lakes may contain both coolwater fish species such as walleye (Sander vitreus) and warmwater fish species such as largemouth bass (Micropterus salmoides). Recent declining walleye and increasing largemouth bass populations have raised questions regarding the future trajectories and management actions for these species. We developed a thermodynamic model of water temperatures driven by downscaled climate data and lake-specific characteristics to estimate daily water temperature profiles for 2148 lakes… Show more

“…For example, Walleye were uniformly more abundant in cool lakes (and were most abundant in two-story lakes), a pattern consistent with other research on the species (Jobling 1981;Van Zuiden and Sharma 2016;Hansen et al 2017;Rypel et al 2018). These results also align with previous research characterizing the species as best suited for warm, clear-water habitats (Rypel 2009;Hansen et al 2017). In contrast, Largemouth Bass showed the highest abundances in warm lakes, especially warm-clear lakes.…”

“…Future climate change indeed will impact the species composition of tropical rivers, leading to a dominance of warm water species that are able to adapt to a low DO concentration level and a consistently high water temperatures condition. As suggested by Hansen et al [66], warm water species can quickly adapt to climate change compared to cold-water species. Understanding the effects of climate and predicting the effects of future climate change on water temperature and DO concentration on the river ecology is critical for effective resource management [67].…”
