Abstrakt: This document discusses the effects of a sudden cold snap on reef fishes in Okinawa-jima Island, Japan. The researchers conducted surveys on two beaches and recorded a total of 169 stranded dead fishes from 17 families. The highest fish mortality was observed during the peak of the cold snap, with a significant decline in mortality on the following day. The majority of the dead fishes belonged to the cardinalfish family. The study highlights the vulnerability of small and thermally sensitive fish individuals to rapid temperature changes and emphasizes the importance of temperature change rate as a stressor for reef fishes.
