Abstract:Aquatic organisms are challenged by changes in the external environment, such as temperature and salinity fluctuations. The response of an organism to temperature changes can be modified by salinity, thus pointing at the potential interaction of both variables. In the present study, we tested this assumption for freshwater, brackish, and marine organisms, including algae, macrophytes, heterotrophic protists, parasites, invertebrates, and fish. We reviewed the existing body of literature on potential interactio… Show more
