Popis: Hydroelectric dams are an important source of electricity globally, but they can also cause total dissolved gas (TDG) supersaturation in rivers. TDG supersaturation can harm fish through a condition called gas bubble trauma (GBT), which has been studied primarily in salmonids, such as rainbow trout and steelhead salmon (Oncorhynchus mykiss), but seldomly in non-salmonids like white sturgeon (Acipenser transmontanus). We assessed the vulnerability of juvenile rainbow trout (
