Phenology affects nearly all aspects of ecology and evolution. Virtually all biological
phenomena—from individual physiology to interspecific relationships to global nutrient …

Developmental temperatures can have dramatic effects on body size in ectotherms. Thermal
plasticity in body size is often viewed in the context of seasonality, but the role of seasonal …

Phenological shifts constitute one of the clearest manifestations of climate warming.
Advanced emergence is widely reported in high-latitude ectotherms, but a significant …

Insects play a crucial role in all ecosystems, and are increasingly exposed to higher in
temperature extremes under climate change, which can have substantial effects on their …

While the public continues to debate the reality of global warming, scientists should prepare
to deal with the consequences of this very real phenomenon. Our planet has warmed by 0 …

The thermal tolerance of ectotherms is a critical factor that influences their distribution,
physiology, behaviour, and, ultimately, survival. Understanding the factors that shape …

Critical thermal limits (CTmax and CTmin) decrease with elevation, with greater change in
CTmin, and the risk to suffer heat and cold stress increasing at the gradient ends. A central …

BACKGROUND Insects living in unfavorably high or low temperatures are predicted to
display a fast or slow life‐history strategy. Here, we examined life histories of fall armyworm …

Climate change is resulting in a radical transformation of the thermal quality of habitats
across the globe. Whereas species have altered their distributions to cope with changing …

Central ideas from thermal biology, including thermal performance curves and tolerances,
have been widely used to evaluate how changes in environmental means and variances …
