Inactivity and the passive slowing effect of cold on resting metabolism as the primary drivers of energy savings in overwintering fishes

Winter dormancy is a seasonal survival strategy common among temperate ectotherms, characterized by inactivity, fasting and low metabolic rates. Previous reports of metabolic rate depression (MRD) in winter-dormant ectotherms, including many fishes, may have resulted from confounding influences of t...
