Abstract

Abstract Climate change‐induced extreme temperature events are becoming more intense and frequent. For fish, temperature is the master abiotic factor that controls and limits fish development and physiology at all stages of aquaculture. Major physiological constraints at the individual level underpin changes in fish growth, hemato‐physiology, metabolism, immune and molecular stress responses to extreme temperature events. Extreme temperature impacts on fish vary among and within the diverse species depending on stress magnitude and associated factors. This review synthesizes the impacts of climate change‐induced extreme temperature events on neuroendocrine, oxidative, metabolic, osmotic, molecular, hemato‐biochemical, and immune responses in fish related to aquaculture. Besides, overall aspects of extreme temperature impacts on fish growth and reproduction are also discussed. Possible mitigation measures to…
