Global warming is increasing the overheating risk for many organisms, though the potential
for plasticity in thermal tolerance to mitigate this risk is largely unknown. In part, this …

Understanding the factors affecting thermal tolerance is crucial for predicting the impact
climate change will have on ectotherms. However, the role developmental plasticity plays in …

Accurately forecasting the response of global biota to warming is a fundamental challenge
for ecology in the Anthropocene. Within-species variation in thermal sensitivity, caused by …

Many species face extinction risks owing to climate change, and there is an urgent need to
identify which species' populations will be most vulnerable. Plasticity in heat tolerance …

Linking variation in species' traits to large-scale environmental gradients can lend insight
into the evolutionary processes that have shaped functional diversity and future responses …

Studies suggest that many species are already living close to their upper physiological
thermal limits. Phenotypic plasticity is thought to be an important mechanism for species to …

Understanding how climate change affects natural populations remains one of the greatest
challenges for ecology and management of natural resources. Animals can remodel their …

Plasticity is a near‐ubiquitous feature of the thermal physiology of ectothermic organisms.
Understanding the significance of plasticity in evolutionary and ecological contexts requires …

Climate change is one of the major issues facing natural populations and thus a focus of
recent research has been to predict the responses of organisms to these changes. Models …

A recently developed integrative framework proposes that the vulnerability of a species to
environmental change depends on the species' exposure and sensitivity to environmental …
