• High pH in lakes influence fish survival, performance.

• Climate change likely to exacerbate the problem.

What factors affect high pH tolerance in rainbow trout?

1. Identify mechanisms involved in high pH tolerance.

2. Is tolerance strain specific?

3. Does hatchery rearing affect tolerance?

4. Test Stump Lake as a brood source.
