..., with an interaction where flow had less influence on respiration at low temperatures, and a much larger effect at high temperatures. Model analysis suggested that respiration is mass transfer limited under conditions of low velocity (<7.5 cm −1 ) and high temperature (20–25°C). In contrast, limitation by uptake...
