Salmonids are particularly susceptible to warming and hypoxia during development in redds. We reared Chinook salmon embryos and alevins under chronic warming and hypoxia to evaluate the effects of each stressor individually and their interaction. Warming and hypoxia affected survival, physiological performance and development with management implications for salmon conservation.
