Water temperature plays a crucial role in the growth, survival, and reproduction of fish species, as they make up the majority of aquatic fauna. In this study, the effects of low temperature were studied on the functional state of juvenile golden pompano ( Trachinotus ovatus ) under low-temperature stress. The study was conducted at 28°C in the control group and 18°C in the cold group for 14 d to determine the intestinal tissu...

Haloxylon ammodendron is an excellent windproof and sand-fixing species whose shrubs are widely cultivated in arid desert areas of northwest China but are now at risk of degradation and shrinkage. Using the chlorophyll fluorescence image analysis technique, the response of photosystem II (PSII) photochemical efficiency and non-photochemical quenching capacity to sediment-carrying wind and sand-free wind (both 12 m s −1 ) lasti...
