Temperature imposes significant constraints on ectothermic animals, and these organisms
have evolved numerous adaptations to respond to these constraints. While the impacts of …

Thermal performance curves (TPCs) describe the effects of temperature on biological rate
processes. Here, we use examples from our work on common killifish (Fundulus …

Phenotypic plasticity plays a key role in modulating how environmental variation influences
population dynamics, but we have only rudimentary understanding of how plasticity interacts …

Behavior of wild vertebrate individuals can vary in response to environmental or social
factors. Such within-individual behavioral variation is often mediated by hormonal …

Characterizing thermal acclimation is a common goal of eco‐physiological studies and has
important implications for models of climate change and environmental adaptation …

Predicting the response of the biota to global change remains a formidable endeavor.
Zooplankton face challenges related to global warming, ocean acidification, the proliferation …

Summary 1 Large female insects usually have high potential fecundity. Therefore selection
should favour an increase in body size given that these females get opportunities to realize …

Among-population variation in insect thermal performance is important for understanding
patterns and mechanisms of evolution and predicting insect responses to altered climate …

Thermal performance curves (TPCs) are intended to approximate the relationship between
temperature and fitness, and are commonly integrated into species distributional models for …

Highlights•The expression and outcomes of mating behaviors vary as complex, continuous
functions of temperature.•Thermal mating windows emerge from sex-specific effects on …
