Abstract in brief

  • The text discusses how global warming is expected to cause marine fishes to shrink in size, mainly because their gills can't supply enough oxygen as their bodies grow larger.
  • It emphasizes the Gill-Oxygen Limitation Theory (GOLT), which explains fish shrinking by pointing out that gill surface area can't keep up with the oxygen needs of bigger, three-dimensional fish.
  • The authors argue that empirical evidence supports GOLT's predictions of decreased fish size with warming, and no simpler alternative explanation for these biological features has been proposed so far.]

Warmer waters caused by climate change will make fish to gasp for air & leave them shrinking acdg to #DanielPauly (world-renowned fisheries scientist/PI of @SeaAroundUs) & William Cheung (multi-award winning scientist/Science Director of @nereusprogram). https://t.co/lxkx3Eps2s
