Fish mass die-offs are becoming increasingly common due to climate change: Study

Using data collected from more than 500 previous fish die-offs from lakes across Wisconsin and Michigan, researchers are using modeling to predict the increasing frequency of mass die-offs as a result of climate change. Those are the findings of a recent paper co-authored by two members of the University of Arkansas Department of Biological Sciences: doctoral student Simon Tye and associate professor Adam Siepielski, along with several of their colleagues.
