Understanding thermal limits and the ability of species to cope with changing temperatures
is crucial for a cause and effect understanding of climate effects on organisms and …

The concept of oxygen-and capacity-dependent thermal tolerance in aquatic ectotherms has
successfully explained climate-induced effects of rising temperatures on species abundance …

In aquatic environments, rising water temperatures reduce water oxygen content while
increasing oxygen demand, leading several authors to propose cardiorespiratory oxygen …

Temperature and hypoxia would traditionally be considered as different environmental
factors, with specific implications for whole organism functioning. Development of the …

Coastal marine systems are characterized by high levels of primary production that result in
diel oxygen fluctuations from undersaturation to supersaturation. Constant normoxia, or …

Abstract Oxygen consumption (Ṁo2), heartbeat rate and form, and circulating hemolymph
oxygen content were measured in relation to temperature in the large Antarctic infaunal …

Although thermal performance is widely recognised to be pivotal in determining species'
distributions, assessment of this performance is often based on laboratory-acclimated …

Summary 1 Biological capacities to respond to changing environments dictate success or
failure of populations and species over time. The major environmental feature in this context …

Marine invertebrates display a tremendous range of thermal sensitivities and thermal
tolerance limits, but they can all experience thermal stress at their upper thermal limits. Such …

To further investigate the previously reported limited acclimation capacities of Antarctic
marine stenotherms, the Antarctic mud clam, Laternula elliptica (King and Broderip, 1830 …
