In ectotherms, temperature induces similar developmental and evolutionary responses in
body size, with larger individuals occurring or evolving in low temperature environments …

Gaining the ability to predict population responses to climate change is a pressing concern.
Using a “natural experiment,” we show that testing for divergent evolution in wild populations …

Temperature profoundly impacts both the phenotypes and distributions of organisms. These
thermal effects exert strong selective pressures on behaviour, physiology and life history …

Realistic projections of the biological impacts of climate change require predicting fitness
responses to variations in environmental conditions. For ectotherms, this challenge requires …

Thermal performance curves (TPC s), which quantify how an ectotherm's body temperature
(Tb) affects its performance or fitness, are often used in an attempt to predict organismal …

Warming, the most prominent aspect of global environmental change, already affects most
ecosystems on Earth. In recent years, biologists have increasingly integrated the effects of …

Understanding how environmental factors affect the thermal tolerance of species is crucial
for predicting the impact of thermal stress on species abundance and distribution. To date …

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 …

Global warming is increasing mean temperatures and altering temperature variability at
multiple temporal scales. To better understand the consequences of changes in thermal …

Many ectotherms reduce their exposure to changing thermal conditions using behavioral
thermoregulation. The effectiveness of behavioral thermoregulation in maintaining …
