Sub-lethal temperature effects are also related to metabolic inefficiencies, susceptibility to disease and toxic effects of pollutants, behavioural patterns, intra-and inter-specific competition, predator-prey relationships, community composition and parasite-host relationships.emperature reductions to stream environments in winter may result from the loss of insulation of the forest canopy under clear-cut conditions in combination with increased radiant cooling; accelerated freezing may lead to anchor ice formation and minimize interstitial habitat for juvenile fish (Hicks et al.
