The Potential and Realized Influences of Temperature on the Distribution of Fishes in the New River, Glen Lyn, Virginia
Stauffer JR, Dickson KL, Cairns J, Cherry DS. 1976. The Potential and Realized Influences of Temperature on the Distribution of Fishes in the New River, Glen Lyn, Virginia. Wildlife Monographs. 50:3-40
Field sampling was performed at six stations along the river. "The results from laboratory temperature preference and avoidance studies, the results from field determined estimates of temperature selection (rotenone data), the total range of temperatures at which a species was collected (rotenone and seine data) and a literature review were used to evaluate and predict the potential or realized influence of temperature on the distribution of study on each of the 48 species collected in this study."
