Table 2 Estimates of population growth rate ({lambda}) for specimens of Palaemonetes pugio in a multiple-brood study of cyclic hypoxia

Treatment Brood 1 Brood 2

HH 1.2169 (1.1686–1.2609) 1.2654 (1.2610–1.2697)
HN 1.2248 (1.1527–1.2924) 1.5201 (1.5066–1.5336)
NN 1.2916 (1.2544–1.3287) 1.6880 (1.2557–2.1203)

HH—females continuously exposed to cyclic hypoxia (1.5–8 mg/l DO, 4.20–18.88 kPa) over 24 h for 77 d. HN—females exposed to cyclic hypoxia for 2 weeks prior to mating and allowed to mate in normoxia (8 mg/l DO). NN—females continuously exposed to normoxia (8 mg/l DO) for 77 days. Numbers represent {lambda} and 95% confidence limits.
