PALMA, 19 (EUROPA PRESS) An international multidisciplinary team has published a new study that reveals that Atlantic bluefin tuna larvae (Thunnus thynnus) survive within a narrow temperature range, making them one of the most vulnerable phases in the face of ocean warming. The work provides new data on the thermal limits of larvae, with average values of 31.7 °C maximum and 17.9 °C at least, as indicated in a press release by the Spanish Instit…
