WHITEFISH (COREGONUS LAVARETUS): BIOLOGY AND ITS ENVIRONMENTAL ADAPTATION
Keywords:
Whitefish, Coregonus lavaretus, biological adaptation, reservoir acidity, thermal pollution, hermaphroditism, population ecology, ecological risk, fish physiology, growth rate, sexual maturity, biodiversity, conservation measures, water temperature effects.Abstract
This article discusses the biological characteristics, adaptations to different environments, population changes, and conservation strategies of Coregonus lavaretus (whitefish). The growth, sexual maturity, response to environmental factors, and the effects of temperature and water chemistry of whitefish are analyzed based on scientific sources.
