(a) Morphology of the head neuromasts in a larval zebrafish, visualized with DASPEI. Labels indicate the neuromasts that were quantified to assess hair cell damage. Scale bar = 250 µm. (b) Acute stormwater exposure does not kill lateral line hair cells. 5–6 dpf fish were exposed to stormwater for 24 hr (from June or December 2014 storm events), then hair cells were labeled with DASPEI. There is a slight but significant effect of stormwater (one-way ANOVA, F_4,62 = 4.02, p = 0.006). Bonferroni-corrected post-hoc testing shows decreased hair cell survival for fish in the 100% June or 50% December groups (*p < 0.0001 for each). N = 13–14 fish per group, bars are + 1 s.d.
