Fig. 1. (A) Experimental protocol for low temperature and spring–summer simulation experiment with mussel Mytilus edulis and oyster Crassostrea virginica. Circles indicate dates of clearance rate measurements and lipid sampling. Routine VO2 was measured on 12 April, 4 May and 31 May and VO2min was measured on 8 June after starving the animals used for routine VO2. (B) Schematic of the split-split plot experimental design. T°C=9, 4 or 0. See Materials and methods for further details.
